Starting to get some nice edge toning. Looks like some type of damage on the eagles breast, or is that just the picture? Chatter on both sides, I'm going to say MS-62. If damage on the reverse that will effect the grade some.

Two minor scratches run diagonal across the breast ... not the entire length ... more like chatter marks ... for some reason the picture makes the breast appear hacked up (which isn't the case) ...

Thanks for the feedback!

No way this coin is even close to that.
MS62.
Either damage or, struck thru debris of some kind on eagles breast.

The obverse is a solid MS63 with a shot at 64. Unfortunately the reverse brings it down to a 62. Lots of contact on the reverse around the motto. Still great toning on this one!

MS-62. Good detail but chatter marks bring this coin's grade down. Nice toning.

I would grade the coin MS 62. Too much chatter lowers the grade.
