What's the consensus on this one ? I'm just suspicious.

It's a bit flat in the middle which is a pity, as the periphery which is usually the weak point is much better than average. If the centres were the same as the legend I would be chasing that one.

It's just that the obverse scratches look deliberate "aging" to me. I'm just an old cynic. I would have thought they would extend to the legend if accidental.

No I don't think so. Scratches can be any size.

Looks ok to me , would dispute the grade though
