Can't get a good feel from these pics - I'll sit this one out.

Agree with Coinfrog. Much better photos needed.

OK. I haven't received it yet. Is that clearly an "O" mark?

It appears to be a New Orleans mint mark and i'll take a shot at the grade being AU-55. Shows light wear and a fair amount of chatter along with dark mottled toning. What I cannot say for sure is if it's original or cleaned. Better photos will help a lot.

Impossible to judge the surfaces, but it is a very nice strike compared to most 97-Os.

the strike is above average for this year. without better photos it would probably fall into the AU58 or MS62 box

Looks like some circulation. AU-58.
