AU details (cleaned) maybe MS but it does not look like the original skin

Hard to judge color from pictures. I agree, could be AU or MS. I'd have to see it in hand. Lovely Coin!

I'll take a shot at it and say AU+ details (cleaned).

So many pretty die cracks and such here. This is a really nice Half Cent.

I don't know about the surfaces, so I am just going to grade it AU55 and let other folks with more experience talk about the color and toning (the area around the obverse stars and the date would be my main point of interest.) There is hardly any wear, and it is really sharply struck!

Back from NGC.
Your comments and grading was pretty much right on.
I was not surprised to see it come back cleaned details.
