Siggi, those detail are at least xf40 and could even go AU. I am not sure if that is damage across the eagles neck or if the coin was cleaned. If it's original and undamaged it would be worth much more over melt. $70-$150 would be my guess.

Thanks buddy, The line is not a scratch. Could be left overs from a old cleaning....

 

Is that line raised? Looks like it's on the fields, but doesn't go through the Eagle's neck. I'd call it low AU, definitely worth more than just melt, but hard to give a price. The price jumps a lot in the AU grades, like a $700 dollar difference between 50 and 58.

 

I have to agree with this, I would say xf45 as well. Also, there are no top VAMs reported with this date/mint. some minor ones reported though..

Good lookin' XF45.

Does the cleaning automatically drop it to XF from AU?

 

A lot would depend on how harsh the cleaning was and whether there is damage as a result.

Best rule of thumb, never clean coins. Silver tones, it's a natural process.
