    Looked like a decent example to me for $33. Looks like AU sharpness to me. Pics are just so-so taken without taking coin out of 2x2. 444DDEAD-B2EE-4EAF-96C3-DF13E463BF21.jpeg AA7DAEAB-CE75-4F8B-A971-704FE4D3FD60.jpeg

    when I looked at graded examples by PCGS the coin looked like it had more detail than the XF-45 examples. As far as luster maybe not so much.

    Lack of luster and high spots showing light rubs are what holds it back from an AU grade.
