So another one I'm interested in.
Outlines of eagle and around the shoulders of liberty shows dark areas. Do You think its a old retoned cleaning? If you think its ok what grade would you give it? au 58? full head?

Thankful for your input

could be an old old cleaning but I think it grades straight

high AU55 or low 58. I think the lack of luster will keep it to 55
not FH based on these photos

I'll say AU-58 straight, awfully close to FH.

I agree with panzaldi. Not full head, but a very attractive example!

My first though was AU 55 but could reach 58. Like the look.

Thank you all, I'm getting there with my grading
Not seeing FH either but close based on these pics. We will see if I can snag her
numismedia list the price for a au58 as 150 dollar is that a good source?

PCGS writes that, for a full head designation, "90 to 100 percent of the detail intended must be present." Generally, this means three complete and distinct leaves must be present, the hairline must be distinct all the way around the face, hair detail is distinct, and the lower hair curl — or, in the case of a slightly weaker strike, the ear hole — must be visible.
