Looks like a nice MS64 RB, maybe a 65.
Only saw the minor hit the cheek and what look like hairlines on the obv around the rim, but those might be on the holder.

The hairlines you see on the obverse are die polish, I'm pretty sure.
I'm absolutely terrible at telling specimen versus mint state but I'd almost guess it was SP65RB. The strike looks quite good and the die polish could certainly be present on a specimen. I can't see the rims so that doesn't really help. If it's mint state then MS65RB here. (actually it looks better than 65 to me if it's mint state)

Agreed on red, regardless of what the Sheldon score is...

Knowing PCGS is on steroids with their 'details' grades, I will guess 'Unc details' even though I personally do not think so.

Everyone was quite close and Levaril was almost there! All the marks in the field are polishing lines, the colors of pictures are slightly off due to the weird surface of this coin, the real color is a strong reddish-orange :
