What's the consensus on this one? Very odd looking toning on obverse.

i think it makes XF45. reverse looks close to AU however I'm not a fan of the botchy obv. I'm thinking it was from the way it stored over time rather than cleaned. not sure how that would treated. your looking at a more common LC. I'm not sure this is the right piece if you are looking for individual dates. again raw coin...you have been on the roll with returns lately although I'm betting this coin looks just like the photos

Just makes AU50 details - I doubt those obverse surfaces are original to the coin. It looks more like a cleaned coin that has been recolored or darkened.

Obverse makes it a pass for me, low eye appeal with the blotchy spotting; has some issues with dings on the cheek, neck, and left of her chin.
