    It appears to have been in a bezel at one time.
    That would be responsible for the rim damage.
    And the luster breaks would be caused by wear hence AU.

    Common date so don't expect anything more than gold spot.

    AU55. I believe the tiny rim ticks will get a pass. I doubt it was in a bezel... I see no evidence of that. It's a $175 coin IMO.
