I've never seen a nicer Type 1. MSFantastic.
What's that by her armpit? A mark and shadow from the holder?

I should note that the armpit, neck, and shield are why I went down to a 64.. If those are indeed on the holder.. the sky is the limit for this coin :)

It looks like there is a reflection under the mark, so I was assuming it was on the holder.

It does have great cartwheel luster and the mark on the armpit is on the holder. A couple of hits on the shield and chest probably held it back in grade.

I was about to chime in with a guess on the grade. To late, but I'll say it was not going to be 62. Wow didn't see that coming. The coin is much nicer than the slab!

This is why I dont like TPG's. They set the standards and then dont follow them... No way that is only a 62...

I guess this is good, if you paid MS-62 money!

I was not expecting that grade at all.

I thought that it deserve a MS-64 as well, but if you paid 62 price you got a great deal.

I was going to chime in at MS63 maybe 64 with FH - but the grade was posted before I could. These SLQ can be really hard to grade based on a simple photo, one almost always needs the coin in hand.
