I have a feeling it's 65 brown or red brown nope brown. PCGS in my short time doesn't like to go above 65 for the ones I have seen. What it should grade is a different story.

Keep in mind it's a Trueview pic, which means the coin probably looks very little like it.

So true since I have up to date Trueview pics to compare what's in hand.. Wise collector that panzaidi , knows there stuff and helps educate. Curious as to the grade.

I saw it a few days ago on the PCGS TrueView images in Coin Facts it was in the top photos, I still think it is more RB than BN. A real beauty KYCopper!

i had it at MS65RB and still think its RB. whomever graded this didnt look close enough at the color or didnt think there was more than 5% red. it might be borderline but it should have received the designation.

CAC doesn't take color into account so the grade is spot on

nice coin

Nailed it! To all you guys that have been helping me (I am listening) . It's going to pay off for me. I feel fairly sure it's the only one I will ever get but who knows! Now to nail 67 red coins (for me an impossible task)

KY it looks red brown from pictures at least to me. I am drooling over here.
