Just picked this up today. I'll let you know what grade it was priced at after a few guesses.

I would agree AU for sure, 55 sounds right not 58, cleaned not sure...But I would hate to think that its been over dipped to many times, as I'm thinking that....the REV has toooo even a toning ...and for silver I would expect more colors, than BROWN...Not a good sign...

Yeah I'm not sure what's happened to this coin either. It doesn't exhibit any real hairlines, so it hasn't been harshly cleaned... I don't doubt it's been dipped a few times though. Will say what grade it was priced at sometime on Tuesday afternoon :)

If you don't mind me asking, where did you get this coin from?
Rest in Peace

Yeah, it looks kind of dipped in something but its still pretty nice! AU definitely, if you paid less than $40 you did fine.

AU-53. I didn't notice the cleaning at first, I thought the toning was just funky.
