Here's a fun one I picked up awhile back (please ignore the glare off of the holder). The coin has full luster bloom.

That reverse looks like it came off a well worn die. Obverse looks much better but far from a good strike. If it's slabbed then I'd guess EF45.

I agree with Bherring's assessment of the die state. However, I don't see any rub so I'll say MS60

Late die state but abundant luster. The bagmarks are fairly minimal but there is some carbon spotting so I give it an MS63.

Wow, grades ranging from EF45 to MS63.

There's no rub on the coin and full luster. I was a bit more optimistic of the grade as Choice BU (MS63) when I first bought it. But, now looking at it overall, weaker strike, carbon flecks, and marks, I would probably just put BU on a 2X2 and sell it at a decent BU+ price.
