    Looks much better in hand. The luster on the obverse is okay, but the luster on the reverse is unreal for a 35!

    I've seen far worse in pcgs xf 40 slabs I think there's a touch of strike weakness too the marks may be why they graded it down nice original color the reverse looks like a 53

    Of course, all the raised design elements on the reverse will tend to protect the luster, compared to the obv.
