I want to say 65... but I'm hoping it's a 66.. having a hard time seeing any flaws.

ICCS gave this one a MS65.

I have to agree with it. The reverse is gorgeous, nice strike overall

I disagree with ICCS. That is not a "red" coin by any means...

My thoughts exactly. Unless your pictures are playing tricks, that sure looks like a lot of brown mixed in with the red luster. Maybe it was red when it was certified, but has since changed?

I agree as well. It's definitely not worthy of red. But I guess that's why an ICCS red doesn't receive as much interest as a PCGS red. A few of the coins I have are ICCS reds but clearly the PCGS ones that I have from the same colour are RB.

My pictures are pretty close to the actual. The obverse especially. Has that brown mix in there. But the reverse is no doubt red. It seems to be going brown towards the bottom but that must be the picture.

I gave it a 64 because of the cheek contact and the touch of flatness in the tip of the mustache..still a very nice cent..!!..

Be it 64 or 65 RB or Red..we do know that ICCS plays games with it's older and/or newer grading practices..
