MS-65 with a coin flip on FSB. I've seen plenty in FSB holders that don't really meet the technical definition.

MS-64 with a chance at FSB. As Fenton says, I've seen many in FSB holders with bands worse than this coin.

Nice specimen here for sure Zurie! Great strike, borderline full bands! To me it looks like it was dipped at some point, not that this will effect PCGS's opinion per se. Seems like some impaired luster in the fields and not sure if the devices are fully lustrous. I'm guessing PCGS graded this anywhere between AU58 and MS63.

i just had to look at this one again. something was bothering me about the grades here. the neck is looking like it has some light wear on it and the glare may be overriding some of the surfaces especially on the reverse. I'm going to change my grade to AU58. I hope it came back MS for you Zurie but I think its borderline MS

First impression was MS-64. I noticed there aren't any heavy contact marks or distracting points, so I think it can make an MS-65.
Wonderful photos!

Here's the reveal. There are a few scattered light hairlines on the neck and a tiny rim dent on the obverse at 11:00, so I think 65 would have been a stretch even with the excellent luster. But I was hoping for a FSB designation. Admittedly it's borderline, but I think it could have gone either way.
