Nice 1916-D! The strike is solid. The die states differ a bit, but that isn't a distraction. On the obverse, rim dings at 4:00 and 6:00 and shoulder surface scratches are the main issues. On the reverse, dings on the "O" and above the "N" of ONE are the main issues. The reverse die polishing suggests die clashing with its previous obverse die. IMHO, it's a solid PCGS MS-64. I can't tell from the pics if it makes RB, but it sure has eye appeal.

Well, the trueviews are kind of off in this coins case in my opinion, and look much darker than the coin in hand, the rim hit isn't as obvious, I assume due to lighting angle and shadowing? Anyways, here's some pics I took through a loupe.   |

I honestly don't know how they accomplished those colors...I can't pull them out of it under any kind of lighting...

i had this at MS65RB with the new photos I'm still at MS65 as the number of reverse ticks will hold it from 66 but the color looks RD. nice coin. another reason I despise trueview.

The reverse marks were easier to see in your updated photos. I'll revise down to MS-65 but RD.
