Wow, oh my! That coin is amazing! I am not sure what it cost, but it rocks! I hope it comes back with a great grade and a Fh as well!

Nice looker! The grade is really going to depend on the strength of the luster in hand. Could be as high as 65 or low as 61 FH imo.

Someone earlier made a GIF with a Mercury dime that highlighted the luster in about a dozen different shots and strung them together to illustrate the radiance of the coin...it was/is beautiful! I would like to do something like that for this SLQ!

I am trying to sell ("Pocket It Now" before ebay) a toned 1930 MS63 FH ANACS to recoup the money I paid for this one.

That was me. It was very tedious, but I can offer some tips and I think your superior setup will make it easier. I'm working with a loupe duct-taped to a camera-phone and a desk lamp.

AWESOME! I am saying MS64 minimum.

As for the TPG, the actuality of it is that any of the 4 will be fine. The folks that insist on saying ANACS is one grade higher automatically than PCGS are delusional and have drank long and deep of the kool aide served by them. Likely have also drank from the NGC cup as well. The difference is expense and snobbery.
