That's a tough one, my initial impression based on the color was MS, but it has wear on the hair so AU-55. Really nice! Did you just get it back?

oooooh that's nice, love the double Liberty. Will assume problem free. AU50, definitely see some wear. Looks like there's also some doubling on the nose, hair line, etc.

They are my fathers coins. Helping him organize and price these for him...I'm in awe when I was holding them... I thought the ms64 was a S1 at first and didn't even want to touch it. Thanks for all yhe input guys. I'll be posting more stuff along the way.

Awesome coin, but looks more like EF40 to me, maybe I'm missing something. Still, clear doubling.

PCGS must have been in a good mood when they slabbed it. I just think it's a AU-55.

The coin looks much better in hand. The color is a tad bit off when I compare it to my pictures. They aren't the best at all. The coin looks much more "red" in the pictures. I believe it could have been in a MS holder if not for that nudge on the liberty. I am going to a coin show tomorrow and will see what others say about it. Preferably that is my most favorite coin out of the lot just because of how much red is still available left on it.
