    This is another of my recent acquisitions. My goal at present is to upgrade my SLH collection to at least F15. I will freely admit that my photographic skills are nowhere near that of most CT members, so please take that into consideration when guessing the grade.

    Edit: reverse image scratches are the slab surface.

    XF-40 (the eagle's wings seem extra shiny - cleaning or reflection?)

    Looks AU, but I can’t tell further than that because there is not enough light on the coin to bring out the luster. It appears to be dipped.

    That’s probably luster.

    First, the coin that this replaced, followed by the slab. Thanks to all for guessing the grade.

    ddddd and Seattlite86 nailed it exactly, while lordmarcovan was in the ballpark. Well done!

    Looks like I missed this one. My guess would have been AU-53.
