Really nice surfaces.
MS-67 or -68 is within the realm of possibility.
As for FSB, that's a close call AND depends upon who you send it to, PCGS or NGC.

Looks like a hit above the O in GOD. I would say MS66 maybe 67 and not FSB. Nice looking coin.

I think it could go 67. Agree that it just misses fsb. The center band is close but just misses

MS65/66 from me - no FSB just falls shy of middle bands being completely separated IMO.

ICG went on the conservative side here and graded it MS65. Oh well!
