Stephen-P Valued Member Japan 294 Posts	Posted 07/23/2020 06:00 am Just pulled it out of a mint set and wrestled it into this capsule. The reverse still has the capsule over it because I'd rather not try to pop it out until (maybe) sending it in for grading, but what are your thoughts? Report this Post to the Staff

Stephen-P Valued Member Japan 294 Posts	Posted 07/23/2020 08:18 am Thanks for the comments! The marks above the Monticello are light scratches maybe? and certainly aren't noticed in-hand because the luster is all there. Sorry it has the plastic over it. I literally had to wedge it in there with my fingernail behind cotton gloves.. and don't feel like doing that again! Not trying to shoot myself in the foot by hiding any damage to you all, that's for sure.. Report this Post to the Staff
Stephen-P Valued Member Japan 294 Posts	Posted 07/23/2020 08:27 am The most prominent ding seems to be Jeff's bottom jawline, but even that has to be seen at an angle and is hidden well by the luster. As long as it receives a 66+ it'd be worth the submission, and it seems to have the same level of contact marks as other 67s, and with incredible luster... Wish I could post a mini video on here.

ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19186 Posts	Posted 07/24/2020 09:34 am Solid MS65 for me. Report this Post to the Staff
SilverCents Pillar of the Community United States 3281 Posts	Posted 07/26/2020 12:40 am Luster is at MS66, but because of the dings, MS65 would be my guess. Report this Post to the Staff
