Solid 65, might go 66 on a Friday afternoon grading session. Nice coin no matter what it grades.

Lack of luster keeping me at 64.

lighting could be hiding the actual luster. technically it looks like a 65 or maybe 66 however, with the dull look of these photos it may have had a light dip. this is one i'd like to see in hand

It will be very interesting to see what this looks like when you receive it. So many games played with photos, lighting on these seem to be muting what is happening on the surfaces. If this one is as the photos suggest, MS-65 minimum.

"Water" spot on the dot between E & PLURIBUS has me concerned about a dip as well. If it is good to go, 64 - 66 is my range based on the pics...I just feel like the pics are hiding something in the fields on the obverse (because you can barely see the clash mark on the neck and it is so prominent on the reverse).

The more I look at it, the more I can't make up my mind. I originally thought 65, but the cheek is too clean for that. Not sure it's good enough to make 66 though. I really hate plus grades, but I'll say MS-65+.

This came in and looked good at first glance... what is your grade?   But the cheek...  |

I'm not changing my grade, still 64 but more likely as not to end up in a 65.

Solid 63 and chance at 64. Luster still weak with your photos.

Got hoodwinked on that one for sure. Coming way down to 64 tops.  |

Scruffiness of the face was well hidden in the first set of images. Down grading it from 65+ to 63/64.

1st thought was MS66 and wow, more I looked the more I didn't like it, 82 is a tougher dater but this coin didn't have the luster of a 66, I was agreeing with coinfrog, 66 or fraud, looks like the seller may have messed with lighting and maybe even a bit of photoshop to make this coin a lot better in photos than it really is. MS63 maybe a 64 on a good day for the submitter.
