hello,
First, I'd like to say what a fantastic website this is!
I'd be grateful if anyone would share their opinion on what grade and valuation they would give this coin:
It's a beautiful coin to view in person. Thanks alot.

AU-58 to MS-60.
There are quite a few kicks or bag marks which make it MS-60. There might also be a slight amount of wear, but I cannot tell, so it could be AU-58.

In these photo's it may look like the dragon/horse is worn, but that is only because of the light/angle of the photo. There are no wear marks.
This is probably my favourite coin from my small collection.
Cheers guys.

xf because of all the small nicks on it and it has been polished/cleaned. Look at the txt and how dull it looks compared to the rest of the coin, it's a sure sign that's it's been cleaned.

Yeah, I would have to go along with Tony, no better than XF and it's definitely been cleaned. Having said that, it's still a beautiful coin and I wish I had one
