It is currently in a PCGS MS66+ holder, CAC verified. I am thinking about sending it back in, what do you guys think? Check out the True View image taken by PCGS:

As I often say with these types: Because they are high MS grades its impossible to make accurate judgement without the coin in hand; no matter how good the pictures are.

It very well could be, but I agree with zxcccxz, it is impossible to accurately grade coins when they are higher MS grades.

If that's a 67 I will have to take some of mine and go up a grade or 2

I would leave it as it currently sits.
To me it looks like there is quite a bit going on with Lincoln's shoulder. Plus some rim marks that are noticable.
But as others said, its nearly impossible to just go on pictures in high MS, needs to be in hand.

66, a hit on the cheek and some strike weakness will keep it out of 67.

It was that cheek hit I was looking at.

I do not think it would go to 67. As mentioned, scar on the cheek, ding above 1 in 1952.
