Hard one to grade from the photos, need a closer pic. But it has great luster very few bag marks that I can see. I'll guess MS 64 - 65

I see no slide and no friction but a lot of chatter
Foto's inside a capsule are difficult
I see four equally spaced things on the left leg
On the eagle I see a strange line underneath the eagle wich I sprobably a reflection
So I would go with MS 64

Man you guys have great eyes! I can't for the life of me see a 63 to 64. Notice it is an ANAC'S slab. That tells me I have a very strong 64, as ANAC'S is brutal on gold grading. I may send this one to PCGS! I will be posting more soon! Thanks, Mike

I reduced glare by 10% and upped contrast by 10% then I slabbed
full blue shift on ( whence the bluish tinge )
This usually shows any hanky panky and real grade quite nicely
Since I only buy raw coins I have to get a feel what the coin would
do if slabbing comes to europe

I "got here" too late to give an answer until after you posted, but my first thought was 64 or 65. Given that I don't know how to grade gold, it was a lucky guess. Thanks for posting- I learn alot from these- next best thing to a coin show!
Is an arabic numeral 07 next? I want one of those next time I take a break from my classic commems. Would love a high relief, but like my sportcar and flying more too uch to give them up for even one of those beauties! I'll have to make do with a high relief peace instead!
