I'll say 67PL.

Strike looks a little flat above the ear. Does that still merit a superb gem grade?

MS66DMPL
I believe an incomplete strike doesn't affect the grade.

I could see it being an inhibiting factor to make 68, but IMO A coin this clean has no business being in a 66 holder or less unless the strike is inordinately weak. The reverse breast feather look full struck up to me, and the hair is only marginally weaker. I would be happy to pay full retail for this coin in a 67PL holder myself

Hit under her head right of the date keeps it at 66 and I think prooflike though I have a similar reflective 80s that did not get the designation for some reason . They are also though on this year and mint mark

66 seems like a solid bet, but the hazy fields look more PL than DPL. MS-66PL seems about right.

67 PL or DPL NGC only requires 4" mirror depth clarity, so I lean toward DPL.

NGC I'd say it's no lower than a MS67 and likely a MS67* as to PL yes, possible DPL
Final answer - MS67* PL

These were the TPG opinions. Both NGC and CAC thought it was on the better side of 68PL.

PCGS coinfacts lists an estimated value of 12,000 for this stunner.

That's a real beauty! I had the PL and the extra + but was off on the main grade a point, a super coin. Very nice top pop coin.
