Just picked up this coin. What do you think PCGS gave it?

As an FYI, the mark over the "t" in Liberty is a smudge on the holder, not the coin. The "t" in liberty is in excellent condition.

Interesting color for a CN IHC. It appears to be MS Details but can't tell for sure if that's original color.

The color in the picture doesn't reflect the true color. The picture makes the coin look darker than it actually is.

Try taking your pictures with a non-reflective black or dark gray background.
You want most of the light your camera captures to be from the coin.

Here are some pics that reflect the actual color, but doesn't include as much detail as the first set of pics.

Thanks for the tip Kanga, only thing I could find was a trash bag, but that worked well as the black background I think. It was an empt trash bag, BTW.

Ms62. Could very well be slightly circulated as the color looks a bit dark. Tough one!

AU 58. For me it lacks the pop of a MS coin.
