64BN is about right. Do like the woodie. My concern would be the TPG, would they consider that much of alloy mismatch a planchet flaw, and possibly details it for that? Would be interesting to take it to a show where the tpgs are set up and ask.  |

Crazy, I dont think TPG's would detail a coin for a pre/during strike flaw, just as they wouldnt detail a coin with a major lamination, which you could consider an alloy issue. |

A bit hard to grade with the woody pattern, but I'll say MS-64BN. I like it.  |

I really can't tell much of anything about the surfaces from these pics, other than it certainly is not an RB coin (  ), so I'll not offer a grade. I personally do not care for the appearance. |

Thank you for your opinions!
As for the color designation, I'm not sure how this wouldnt be desinated RB? From my understanding, a coin would get an RB designation if it has between 10-95 % red color, id estimate this to have around 30-40% red.

My remark about it not being RB was simply based on your pics - perhaps they aren't accurate, but I don't see any red at all, just browns and tans. |

I guess it's a matter of how it looks in hand, I myself would consider the lighter tan to be red, as that's probably close to how it would have looked from the mint, but I could be wrong.
