After being the subject of my contest, now it's time for a grade! Thoughts?

Wow very nice, AU-50, maybe higher if there was better luster.

Very nice coin Moe! I would give it an XF-45, but might go AU if there is more luster than what the picture shows.

Certainly a shot at AU-50 if indeed the luster is hidden...I have been thinking of getting this Date/MM. I really like yours.

Additional pictures with more light (I'm not sure these help...):

It's funny how the die cracks on the 3 to 7, the 8 to 13 stars and on the date don't show in the first pictures!

That's the last slot I have to fill in the Dansco half dollars section. I'd take that one in a heartbeat. The scratches to the right of the eagle on the reverse are unfortunate, but I'd give it a 50.

Chance.

XF-45
A chance at AU-50 but the marks on the right side of the eagle.
