SilverStackerKid was right on it... MS63. I'm happy with grade and have to say that this Commemorative has a silky luster and wonderful colors in hand!

With an MS grade, NGC does not see any wear.
I also fail to see wear, so in my opinion what MS grade it gets, boils down as to what minor detracting nicks and scratches you can find. Bit of a light strike on the Eagle's breast feathers; the patination seems to be completely undisturbed in this area.

63 seems OK to me as well.

That is a nice example.



I feel that lustre plays a big part in the grading of a coin.


Here is my Stone Mountain in 65:

Looks very similar to yours.

LeeG, that is gorgeous! I have to admit that I'm super jealous, lol. Thanks for sharing.

PS - Who took your photos?

Thank you.

It's in an old NGC holder that I purchased out of a Stacks Bowers auction.

Night-Hawk,
That top example you show is pretty cool.

What's your reference for that?
