I'll say MS-66.
Errers and Varietys.

its a beauty for sure. I looked at multiple ones graded by PCGS and NGC as 67 and yours fits in with those. almost all of them have some small scuffs on the coin as noted in the comments here. remember a perfect coin is not MS67 it's MS70. it drives me crazy when a coin has just a minor mark or scuff and folks think its a 65. every coin between 66 and 69 would have something that keeps them from the perfect 70
based on the superb luster and minor marks I think the coin has a really good shot at 67 but here's the rub. if you send this in to try to get that grade and its anything less than that even 66+ the cost of grading is going to chew up the entire value of the coin.
PCGS is showing over 118 graded 67 or better. now you have a dilemma as the value of a 67 could be in the range of $250-300 at 66 or 66+ you're looking at about $50

It is DDR FS-801 and in MS67 it has a nice value. Anything less than MS66+ would not be worth the grading fees. I'm in the coin for $18, so I could afford to take the shot. |

I'm still at MS-65 on this one. The marks are in very visible areas like Washington's cheek and the eagle's chest and leg, which pop out. It's a great coin and maybe you'll get lucky and the TPG will give you a 66, but with your original cost and TPG fees will you make out? I'm not a gambler, so if it were mine I would not spend the money grading it, but that's just me. |
