$35. MS-63 IMO. Reverse has great luster but obverse is a bit dull, and a weak strike for this year. Pretty clean fields and cheek though.

Not sure what marks are on the coin and which are on the plastic case. Any chance of a new set of photos with the coin removed from the case?

As an FYI, I'm just learning how to grade these. My first thought, after looking over both images for a solid minute, was that it was an uncirculated coin.

BTW, I like to review these "cold," so I never read any comments first, not even those of the original poster. In other words, I scrolled right to the images FIRST, and then I read your opinion on MS-63, and then the other opinions.

I agree with the others that there's a lack of luster, but to me it seems more like a veil of tarnish than wear from circulation, especially given some nice luster is present at the high points on both sides. But again -- I'm VERY new to this!

Also, I know nothing at all about dipping / over-dipping, or how to scan for it. Gotta do some research there.

My $0.02!
