If it is just poorly struck up, it could go as high as AU55. _________________________ ANA R-3154474 -------------------------------- "Hoping to learn a little every day"

It appears to me to have enough for an AU-50, and the piece has smooth surfaces which is a big plus. _________________________ -- Retired dealer. I am a numismatic author.

In-hand it may have good luster. _________________________ ANA R-3154474 -------------------------------- "Hoping to learn a little every day"

MarkFeld MarkFeld Dealer TOTAL NEWBIE Registered: 09/23/02 Posts: 8963 Loc: California	My guess is that it is a weakly struck example which is more lustrous, in person. And that it grades AU55 or higher. _________________________ Mark Feld My website: Mark Feld Rare Coins

SPeck95512 SPeck95512 I am gonna miss that car. Registered: 02/05/11 Posts: 240 Loc: Oklahoma	I'm w/ Mark on this one. I was thinking AU55 and maybe an AU58 if they're generous. Everybody posting it as an XF made me seriously rethink my instincts and not post until now. I'm not much of a gold person but my guesses are usually pretty close despite my unfamiliarity with the series. _________________________
