Strong MS65, me thinks. Really drawn to the toning.

Wow ,stunner . Too bad about the O & N on reverse . Might be a finger print on obverse above LIBERTY . MS-65RB, real nice toning .  |

I graded this MS-65RB. That is not a fingerprint on the obverse. The lines are straight and parallel, finger prints are curved. It's a good impersonation but not real.

Wonder if some MS70 would do anything. Probably would damage it honestly. I'm at a 65RB. Nice!!

I'll join the MS-65RB parade. Those obverse lines look slightly curved—a fingerprint seems most likely to me.

Looks like a DDO to me. Top of the 4 and bottom of the 1 give it away. Edited by pound_foolish

I agree with the MS-65RB group.

You sure made that coin look better then when I had it. Book full of them darn things. I guess it looks like a 65 but as you know I want 67. I have never owned good coins and I am too old wait much longer to get them. I am on a quest. All you guys and gals are along for the ride I hope (and telling me the truth as you see it) I hope. PCGS is now up to 45 and 60 business days. A Long time to see if I am on the right track. |

BadThad I really would love for you to respond to this statement and correct if I am wrong but I believe when you close your eyes you can visualize that die striking that coin and the coin being ejected. then you can see those dies clash in your head when it happens. After thinking about it a minute you realize marks that are on a coin from the dies come from the mint and not post mint damage. When others say ouch I see these marks on the shoulder or above the O and you know very well those marks are not point subtracters. You then shake your head and laugh to yourself thinking "others just don't know". That's how I am at fishing, I have made myself a professional fisherman! I can visualize how fish set up in my head it's a sixth sense I guess. With you guys helping I will get better quickly.  |
