Grabbed this one today for $3 at the local coin shop. Type 2, I do believe, though I'm no expert on Ikes.

That does seem to be the elusive Type 2, proof reverse. PCGS has a good image comparison for FS-901:

Any chance you could get a tighter zoom shot of just the moon?

As far as grading goes, I'll say MS-62.

My non-pro opinion is that it looks a touch circulated due to luster. Very high AU, although who knows which side of the line a TPG would put it.

If you find Pixlr too restrictive (I did!), I like the free Image Size and Round Photo apps. Both are by the same developer. Round Photo is nice because you can rotate, zoom, crop, and resize the image with a file size estimate all on the same screen. Works great for coins.

Even in AU this coin is worth way more than what was paid for it.
