the first set of photos had too much glare. I'm thinking you used the scope on the 2nd set also. maybe put that down and if you have a phone, try this to see what you get

1. turn off flash

2. place coin on flat surface with indirect natural light. maybe a window sill in a cloudy day. Use a black or white background to avoid any reflective color

3. move phone about 3in from coin

4. zoom in using your fingers until the coin comes into focus and fills the cameras view finder. if your phone has a portrait selection use that and then press and hold on the coin in the view finder to AF lock it

5. hold phone steady. if you can't then place something on either side of the coin (like books) at that distance and lay phone between them. this will hold it steady and allow you to zoom and take the photo without any blurring

The second set was taken outside in the shade after sunrise using my phone on a black cloth.
Here is another set I tried to get using my phone:

I'll try one more time at high noon in the shade to see if I can get a better shot.. This coin refuses to cooperate with me. I usually don't have issues with my photos..

The reverse is showing some signs of luster, but not so much on the obverse. I'm still leaning towards overdipped. Can you take a comparison photo of an original BU silver Washington from the 50's or 60's using the exact same lighting?

better photos. I'm seeing some hairlines on the obv now that was hidden by the glare. they are all across the face, neck, under the motto and the right field. long one from the nose to K4 and another from the eye to K3. I'm more concerned now that the coin was swiped with something causing these and the could detail the coin.

I'm going with UNC details (cleaned) now

With the new photos I've got to drop to MS details, cleaned.
