Another set or photos would help, surfaces in front of Liberty look odd.

Quite a bit of halo-ing and Luster loss.

a lot of glare here makes it difficult to assess the surfaces. based on the photos there is quite a bit of missing luster on the obv. and they are making the lower left quadrant of the coin look lightly polished. looks like there may have been quite a bit of marks in that area and someone was attempting to make them less noticeable.

without better photos with less glare either AU details or UNC details. looks UNC

This is a problem coin like I initially thought, details designation.

Second set of photos is a bit dark so can't glean much from them but I'll say MS-63 based on the first set with a shot at 64.

just too much shadowing going on

i''m still not convinced that the obv wasnt polished. the 85(O) should be better struck than this one so it is a concern and none of the photos are showing what the coin looks like when you are holding in hand. its difficult enough to grade from photos so its not you fault and the photos here are not good enough to make a solid call on polishing. the area of concern is obv field K7-K10 and across the cheek.

With the new photos I'm revising to MS details, cleaned. The halo look is the tell.
