65 for sure...but 66 wouldn't surprise me.
Nice one for sure.
Look forward to your follow up!

I agree with MS65 and MS66RD would not shock me.

Yes, I could see MS66, perhaps 66+. Excellent example!

i think its a solid MS66RD and maybe bean worthy. I think the strike is a tad weak as there are no beard hairs and the coat shoulder has some minor very light chatter all of which would preclude it from a 67 grade. nice example.

IMHO there maybe a few nicks to right of Lincoln's bust and on shoulder. Very lustrous. Strike is good save for beard on jaw line and on jacket under bow tie. But the bigger issue relative to the photogrades is the color. The color seems average and not the amber color seen in higher grades. Obv: 66+
There are small nicks on the devices and there appears to be a muted representation of black grease running from 1230 to 5 perpendicularly. MS 65
Possibly MS 66+ buy more likely
MS 66.

I'll join the MS-66RD parade, even though PCGS seems to have a ceiling at 65 for these years.
Wow, that's a nice strike for a 1930-S! I can't remember handling any mid-UNC or better 1930-S that didn't have a soft reverse strike. (Or maybe it was just my weak strike magnet working overtime!)

WOW! That's a stunning example! That reverse is unbelievable for the issue, rare die state and strike IMO.
It's going to come down the luster and eye appeal to crack 67 but it has a good shot IMO.

MS66RD for me as well, though with your luck, PCGS will give it the old QC  |

I bet that coin looks much better in your hand. I would bet the coin is redder than the picture shows. A detailed picture that's magnified shows hits that can't be seen with a 5pwr loupe. I hope you let us know the results after 60 days. I am extremely interested in the results. As you know I have been trying to learn how to get more accurate at my grading. In my humble opinion I will say 66 or better
