Thanks oih82w8,

That's what I was thinking, AU, but not sure if 50 or 55. AU-58 might be a stretch, but always hoping!

I'll give it an AU-58 based on the exceptional strike! Real nice!

Horn crisp and pointed, tail shows very well, all legends well separated from their rims. Slight wear on obverse hair and braid. Touch of wear on Buff.'s rear hip. Cheek on obverse is defined, fold shows well.
IMO, if there is around 1/2 of mint luster still present, AU-55, if not, AU-50.
Nice specimen!!!

And, btw to CCF!!
Rest in Peace

Great strike bit too much wear for an AU-58 so I'll say AU-55+
