Thank you CF, I don't collect these but the design is stunning so I will buy one if I get it for good price. They are to pricey for me

Initially I thought possibly for the reverse.

The fields look a little scratched up, but now I'm thinking it's mild handling.

AU ?

What's going on with the right obverse edge along the rim? Looks cracked, split or separation?

I am at AU 55/53. No cleaning apparent from photos. I prefer to buy these in a TPG holder as too many middle east fakes on the market made from real gold.

A minor misaligned die, similar effect to a Rim Fin of sorts.

I don't think it is cleaned.

Looks to be reasonably right
If it has been cleaned, perhaps it was rubbed with a cloth.

With all the grimme still in place, chances are it's not cleaned. Not seeing a bright surface as would be seen on a leaned one.
