Cool thanks what kept it from getting a higher grade just asking so I can get better at guess a grade. I thought it was a ms66 maybe ms67 only because of the surface in almost scratch free and very well struck. I'm new to coin collecting so I knew I'd be off by a little. Thanks again

Your first two photos does show a well struct coin . It also shows artificial toning IMHO . Your other pics shows blotchy toning that's cutting into it's strike appeal . That could be why Coinfrog gave it a lower grade .
But to be honest I can't see it being a 66 or 67 looking like that . MS-64 possibly details .

I'd go MS-63. The discoloration on the reverse is keeping it from going much higher. Your pics are much, much better without the flash.

Artificial toning could it be just the pictures. Here are some more side angles so the surface shows better. Either way I think it's a great coin thanks

I was referring to the sperm shaped blotch above the E of CENT.

Really I thought that's what made it pop it looks like a gas vapors or something there is more on the side. You think this is artificial toning?
