This coin is up for auction and ungraded. I thought it looked pretty good and was trying to determine my price point. Thanks for the grades so far.

Small but significant dings behind Lib's neck hold this coin back a bit. Nice luster, well photographed. Without the dings, I would have agreed with 65, but I am at MS-64.

I am at MS-65 details cleaned. Major hairlines on the obverse.

I don't see anything that would cause a details grade. Cheek is very clean and the entire portrait is nice and frosty. Reverse looks comparable and overall eye appeal is strong. MS-65 seems like an easy call.

the 84(CC) should be sharp and bold. this one is a tad light around the ear and center of the wings. not a big deal. full unbroken luster. eye appeal is very good and just a few abrasions on both sides.
shes a solid MS65 with a shot at MS65+ or even 66 - really nice example

I would bid up to 65 knowing that it could be higher. I would not chase 66 prices.

Quote: I would bid up to 65 knowing that it could be higher. I would not chase 66 prices. Good advice. I think that's the direction I'll take, but it's already approaching 64 money with another thirty hours or so to go. I may get priced out for this one. I thought it was unusually nice. Thanks, again, to all the CCF experts for their sage advice!

I think that's a solid MS-66 with a shot at 67. Lines on obverse look like die polishing those won't impact grade.

The auction ended while I was away from the computer. This coin went for $500. I think it was a pretty good deal and I would have gone a little higher. Not meant to be I suppose.
Thanks to all for your replies.

worst case the coin is MS65 so $500 is more like 64 $$ plus the fact that this coin has good eye appeal as well and could come in as 66 I think it was a steal. CC's like this are only going to go up in value

Don't know how I missed this one, but studying it I think most people are right at MS65. I don't think it makes MS66.
