I was playing guess the grade over on MyCollect and I struck way out on this one. Anyone else want to try? If you haven't seen MyCollect Guess the Grade yet I highly suggest you do: https://www.mycollect.com/guessthegrade
I went with AU 58 as it looks like there is rub on the high points. Otherwise it is mark free (coins in the MS 63 to 64 range that I have seen had more marks/hits).
I went with AU-58 simply because of minor weak high points. I was caught between 58 and 60. One thing in your favor is that I am usually wrong. Nice coin good luck.
This looks like a pristine, ding-free coin to me. I may be crazy, but I think this is MS65-66 range. Since it's a common date, might be on the lower end, but I could see this getting MS66 with the right grader, on the right day.
Not from a single pair of photos, I can't. I can't tell whether the flat patches on Liberty's legs are rub or just not fully struck up. But I'm not seeing much at all in the way of hits. If these photos just happen to play down the luster that's there, I'm with @Dima.
I said AU-55....I saw what looks like the "rub" on the high points, and I thought it could take it below the AU-58 level. I find telling the difference in the actual number for a clearly MS coin much easier than a coin which could be a "slider" or which you think could be low-60's down to mid-50's. But that could just be me.
I swung a little high, does it have a WF Pedigree That used to be good for a point or two. What's going on just left of the staff? Looks like puddy or some work... maybe a weak strike.
It doesn't seem to me that the photo they provide is a true representation of the coin. It doesn't seem natural at all. They are washing out the defects. I wouldn't hazard a guess. Look at the difference in their photo and mpcusa photo which seems more realistic. As to what the coin would like like in hand in and natural light. Their photo seems enhanced and tweaked.
