Wow, that's a really nice strike. Look at the detail in the beard and garland! I say MS64 but hoping you got a 65 just for the beauty.

If you sent of to PCGS I'd say MS66 would be possible.

Really surprised with so many higher grade guesses, so I'm probably wrong with my opinion. I'll say a CCCS 63 and ICCS 62. I personally would say MS63 and it is a fantastic strike with great eye appeal.

Agree 63, at least by US TPG standards. That left obverse field has some issues. |

Ms 62 I think there is to much chatter in the fields. For a higher grade.
But a lovely coin.

Right on, you guys are amazing graders! I purchased this piece from Glenn ("glenzy"), who asked me to crack it out of the ICCS flip and submit it to them again in anticipation of a higher grade (which I didn't as I wanted to keep it anyway). Thanks for playing, y'all.   Edited by osmiumblue

I will stand by my original opinion at MS 64 (both TPG's thought the same) unless the glare highlighted below is actually wear, which would put it in the AU category if I understand the standard correctly. And I wish I had 58's that looked like that.  Edited by purelywasted

I think often the camera shows stuff you wouldn't see. We're looking at it on our screens at about 10x. The ICCS photo probably shows us what a grader would see - the rub in front of the portrait, a couple non-distracting marks under the bust and a tiny bit of chatter in front of the collar. I think it's a solid 64.

I agree with ICCS's grade of MS-64.

I will go along with CCCS/ICCS as they have both examined the coin under optimum grading conditions.
IMO PCGS would grade this at least a 64 and possibly higher.

Textbook 64. Clearly better than a 63, but not quite clean enough for a 65.

I totally agree with 1cent............
"textbook 64".
and with all due respects to 'purelywasted'....
You're concentrating in the wrong area because in all my 20 years of buying raw MS Canadian coins and sending them to ICCS and getting back very good upgrades, I don't think I have ever looked at the top of the crown as it just doesn't mean squat to the graders at ICCS.
