Hello,

Wondering if this coin would fetch MS. The fields are very nice on the obverse. What are your thoughts? thanks

Not an MS coin, there is wear on the eyebrow and cheekbone, as well as the shoulder of the front paddler.
"Dipping" is not considered cleaning...

Not sure if it's the lighting when picture was taken, but it appears any lustre has been dipped away....

hmm I don't quite see the wear you're talking about. Even under the loupe.

Might have been cleaned

@Cleclerc - A goodly number of rim ticks as well as "bag marks". Is picture #2 & #3 the same coin, as marks on face and neck appear to be in different places? (perhaps lighting effect).
coinsandcanada.com list MS-60 for $122.00 and up.MS-66 $8,500.00.
However, I do not see this as a MS coin.

Something looks off, could be dipped, polished or lighting. Either way probably in the AU range.
