[QUOTE="zaneman, post: 182853, member: 3970"]I'm going to call it an au-53. It could be a little bit higher, or a little bit lower. The coin has well formed details, nice even wear. The hair is blending in such a way thought that I feel the coin is around a 53, but it's hard to pinpoint the exact amount of wear from the picture, so it may be slightly higher or lower. The coin has some neat doubling all over. I feel the coin may have been lightly cleaned, and retoned over time, but without seeing it in hand, it's hard to tell. I think I can see faint hairlines in front of and running through the neck, as well as above one on the reverse. If it has been cleaned, I don't feel that it would affect the grade. Overall, I think it is a wonderful coin. I love the brown color. :)[/QUOTE]
