SEGS rated this a MS 64. I have my doubts but I'd could use a second (or third opinion). Thanks.

WOW! that IS good!
I like it... However... I would have gone for a more reputable grader such as ANACS or PCGS. SEGS has a reputation to be a bit "generous", as far as I've heard. I'd be willing to say +/- a '63

There are two distracting spots in the fields one under the eagle's neck and one on the liberty side at 3 o'clock at the end of the rays
I think MS64 is a correct grade but it might slide down to MS63

I have to agree, I think it could be a MS-64 but on a bad day the graders may call it a 63

Thanks for the feedback. I hadn't notice those spots in the fields. Instead I was focused on Liberty's left knee, specifically that line on her kneecap.
