I have been selling off some silver, and here is another new purchase for the $5 roll. It's not perfect, but not too bad either. Opinions on grade?

Just to warn you, please do not be offended if I'm off a bit...I am HORRIBLE at grading gold, but I will give it a shot, XF-40... I think the fields hold this coin back, as the incuse design is fantastic... I wish you luck on finishing your roll, that is an amazing feat from my standpoint(I'm just a small time collector)...

A small treasure trove you're building here with excellent return.
I can only guess that's either XF-45 or AU-50. Strong details with blemishes.

Looks AU to me, with slight wear visible on the lower headdress feathers and at the eagle's shoulder. Fields have lots of tiny contact marks and I see a couple noticeable scratches. Nothing rises to the level of "damage" but this obviously is not a coin for which you should invest a grading fee. That means it's perfect for your roll!
Rest in Peace

Nuts, I was hoping you were selling. I've recently developed a fondness for these. I'd say EF45.

AU50. Not enough wear on the eagle's feathers to bring it down to XF in my opinion. Then again these gold Indians are some of the hardest to grade.
