I see a little bit of wear on the hair and the eagle's wing, going au-55, maybe 58 if those scratches are on the holder...however don't take my word, this is a training excercise for me right now. Anyone with more knowledge (and that would be most here)?
I see some wear in the hair on Ms Liberty and wear on the tail feathers, back feathers, and leg on the eagle. Could be just the picture, but it also looks like it may have been cleaned at some point. I'm going to say EF-45, maybe AU-50.
Miss Liberty's hair detail is rather indistinct but these high relief coins are normally soft in the center. The eagle is probably a more reliable indicator for grading the 1921 and I see obvious light wear on the wing, neck, and legs. There are a few nicks and scratches but I don't see evidence of abrasive cleaning. The photos don't show much luster. It probably makes an AU-50. IMO the amount of wear on the eagle precludes a higher grade.
My first thought was AU-50 details whizzed. I don't know if it has actually been whizzed, but the really dull color makes me think that...or excessively dipped. Or perhaps, a poor scan.
