From these pics on my 24 inch monitor :-
nice sharp strike, nice luster, but nevertheless still knocked about a bit for grade
I don't see any wear on the high points, so it has to be some sort of MS grade.

MS=61

Sharp strike and luster support a slightly higher value than straight MS-61 grade.

I hope it would grade MS-62. It really is well-struck. I ended up getting for $47. Thanks for feedback.

The coin has some mint luster, so it could go up to an MS grade.

Well struck for the date, some luster. I'm at 61 due to the chatter.
