Nice toning, but I see some slight wear on the eagle's breast feathers. I'd say AU-55.

AU55-58. Little bit of wear on the high points showing a breaking in the luster. Looks great Spence.

So..., if this thread is supposed to help educate us newbies, at what rating do the rim nicks and what appears to be rim wear (thought light) start to affect the grade?
You've got to appreciate that I like being educated, but I (at this point) have no desire to get sucked into the grading thing, so if it is going to happen its only going to happen gently and (at least at the start) without me realizing it.

It's a great coin but I don't like the horizontal scratches.
Looks maybe wiped/cleaned.
