That's a nice one. I think the strike weakness on the hair will hold it back from MS-68 but it might make MS-67. Surfaces are lovely and I see no distracting marks.

Nice coin with very slight MAD, keep in a 2x2 before it starts to spot out

Nice coin. Slight misaligned die, gas bubbles, emergence of Die Deterioration, somewhat soft strike (obverse). I'm good with MS67.

Above 67 eye appeal starts to be factored in, so I think those plating bubbles will hold it to 67.

I agree with the previously mentioned factors, MS67

It has a couple of issues for a 69 . You have an obverse rim problem between 7&11:00 , also those plating bubbles . That said ,I would give it a 66+ red blazer .

It's very nice but has some distractions in the obverse fields along with strike weakness in the high points. The reverse shows typical weakness in ONE CENT and STATES, which usually makes the fields imperfect.

These are tough to find nice! I have rolls of these and searched thousands, this is the nicest one I've found. It too has the strike weakness issues but finding one without bubbles is nearly impossible! I have not even put this one into an Airtite because I'm hoping to find a better one.

Here's another that shows PL surfaces - can't find the reverse picture. This is what it takes to get 67 and higher in these.

Nice coin Thad I'd be at MS-66 for that one.

Nice one BT. Really like that last image. At least a 67. Full clear strike with no striation lines marring the surface like the periphery of the other two images.
Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups. We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow.
