Beautiful coin. Not sure what the toning my be hiding in these pics, but certainly looks way better than a 60!

It may be 63/64 but it's a tough call through the toning. It's definitely a VAM-202A though.

possibly AU58, but I think 63.

Just wanted to toss in that this thing has blazing luster. It's almost semi-PL under the toning.

Using the blow up photo, I don't see any wear on this coin. Nice original MS-64.

If the dark spot on the eagle's tummy is not a ding, then I agree with MS64. I don't see wear on the cheek or more importantly the hair above the ear. The strike has a flat look to it, but is decent.

Thanks all. I value everyone's opinion here, but this one is full mint state. It's just one of those coins you have to see in-hand to really get the true feel.

60. I don't see any wear, but I don't see any luster.
IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: " It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."
