I don't think this one's worth keeping. Just send it to me for disposal.

Where do you get these wonderful toys? This one's oddly-struck through the letters but has gorgeous devices. I don't know if it's worth calling 64/65 or not, but it sure looks like it.

It's very well struck. A very nice coin. I would have to give it MS-65. Depending on the TPG it could come in at a MS-64 also. Of course, you send it to SGS and it is going to get a MS-70 for sure.

Hint: If your grading this a 65.... Your off by many grades. It's very slabbed!

If it's higher than a 65 then the pictures don't do it justice. Unless, of course, it is in an alphabet slab.

It's in a recognized valid slab. This one may surprise everyone.

my first impression was MS-61 but then I looked again and read the other responce and since I am no expert on the series I figured it may just be a 64 or 65 and what I was thinking was way off. But I went and looked a few places and if its in a PCGS slab I will go back to my original statement and say MS61

Beautifully struck coin but because of the rim I would grade at MS60.

Hmmm, I didn't even think about it being a proof. At least I got the 65 part right. Well, I was fooled. At least your reveal worked on this one.
