Quote: is it MS Details? I'll give out this freebie. I've never bought a details coin and probably never will.

FUll luster both sides. decent strike. I think the toning if anything would only add about 1/2pt to the grade for eye appeal but the chicken pox may offset that. hard to tell what goes on under toning but looks like its pretty clean. I think its better than 65 but not a 67. MS66FH

Alright! Revealing 1hr late lol.
PCGS MS64FH!
I thought this was slightly conservatively graded and with the amazing eye appeal I thought I did well.
I paid $510 all up for it which is about what I'd expect to pay for a 65FH untoned one. Given the eye appeal boost and the conservative grading I think I did very well. I think this is a very strong 64 and could eek out a 65.

Fair, but agreed, just a tad conservative. Very nice example, congrats on this one!

Looking forward to seeing better photos. I did pretty good on this call. I'm curious as you are as to the level of those carbon spots.

Thanks guys! I think I did well as well, it's the first SLQ I've owned above fine to boot.

Really nice toning IMO but the spots are a bit distracting to me, especially the one on the shield. Is there a way to remove those without damaging the integrity of the coin?
