Your thoughts on a grade is greatly appreciated. Love the die cracks on the reverse.

Looks sharp. I can see it at 66 or 67.

Is that a die crack on the reverse?

There's actually 2 of them. From the C in cent to the rim and also from the rim through the S in states.

Ah! I thought it was one continuous crack, but I see the separation now.

Also, I just realized you said "Love the die cracks on the reverse" in your opening post.

The picture are deceiving, the coin doesn't look like this. No cartwheel spokes indicated in the lighting, the luster looks very diffuse which could indicate wear. The wheat lines appear slightly worn, they are not as sharp as they should be for an MS coin, especially for a steely, which are very resistant to wear.

Here are larger images of the coin. Lighting is everything when you're taking pictures of anything. Hopefully this helps..
