Picked this up for a real good price. I'm guessing high AU or low MS. Thoughts?   Edited by rbaker20

I'd like to have seen a bit of luster coming through your photos (I know hard to capture) Any who with photos provided I'm in at a minimum 63, if fields are "nick" free as they appear.... grade would climb higher.

Still hard to say because of the photo quality and shadows. I'm at MS-63. There's a lot of chatter in the prime focal areas of Liberty's face and neck and what looks to be lines in the field in front of her face. The reverse looks good, although I'm curious what's on the eagle's wingtip at 11:00.

63 sounds right. Nice coin.  IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: " It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

AU cleaned - a little over dipped. the 86(P) are well known for sharp strikes. the cotton balls and grape leaf and wheat prawns as well as the feathers in the arrow as best as I can see in these photos are exhibiting signs of circulation wear. I think your original photos are a better representation of in-hand

second look at this one, I have to agree, based on the new photos that she probably comes in at M63
