Condition: I would grade this coin as a nicely toned choice very fine having all the details well preserved. It has surface scratches and bag marks all of which can be seen in the photos. It also has a couple of dings to the surface and to the edge but all these issues are minor and do not distract from the coin's beauty or quality. The coin shows wear commensurate with its age and circulated status. It has very nice eye appeal and is much better than the photos suggest. Please see photo for complete condition information.
