I see wear on the eagle's leg, Liberty's left breast and on the fold of the flag ..AU 58/MS63. Voted 58 in the poll.
I grade it impossible. Impossible to grade from a single static photo of each side that is. My guess however is MS65...
The photo is over exposed but considering it’s not hiding some wear, it looks very clean, well struck, and the luster & originality look good as well. MS66
If it's not something silly like environmental damage, I'm going with MS 64 I think it's a bit too dark to get a color bump.
Odd coin. Seems like there are some really well struck details mixed in with some normal weak points for a walker. Im thinking the grade came down to the eye appeal and toning. While it is clean from marks, if that toning is that dark, then i think they (NGC?) said MS64.
...areas which are commonly weakly struck. I think this one graded MS64, but the dark rusty toning, reduced luster and weak strike prevented a higher grade.
Well, your photos are tough - the obverse is underlit, the reverse is overlit. I'll grade it MS-pretty. Seriously though, I think I see some marks hidden in the obverse toning, enough to call it a 65. The luster is going to be hindered by the thick toning as well, and these really need strong luster to make 66.
