There's NO way I'd buy from those photos.

Best I can even guess at is a MS62 possibly PL. It appears to also have a below-average obverse strike.

Looks like I posted before seeing the latest pictures so I would say it should be MS64PL if not a MS65PL.

Looks easily MS64 with a shot at proof-like. MS65PL being a best case. A very nice coin that did look a bit better in the seller's images.

I'd be in the 64 PL camp.

The scratch on the chin is fairly significant. I'll say MS64-PL would be 65 without that mark

I might just be in the ms64 camp. I tend to be very picky but I don't see enough on the obverse for pl. the reverse appears to have it...

64 and it will not PL. It might make or not make 65 depending on the particular grader.

I say MS64PL. I don't see this going a 65. There's some chatter on the cheeks and fields.
