I'll say AU-53, possibly 55.

Full horn, so at least XF.
And low AU wouldn't surprise me.

AU53 sharpness, but I question surface originality, obverse especially does not look natural, possibly cleaned.

too much light to assess for wear. seeing the remaining luster on this one will make a difference

try everything the same but no overhead or flash lighting. just take a photo that shows what the actual coin looks like in hand. you don't need that much light. could be as high as AU58. it could even come in as a low MS coin but no way to assess the high points to see what they look like

If anyone happens to notice this older post, I do have another pair of photos, which don't reflect as much light but are too dark.
