Here is a coin I sent to NGC today. I posted pictures on another website, but want to see what you think. The range others were giving was anywhere from MS63-MS67. The coin is essentially flawless, with a huge amount of luster. The third picture isn't in good light, but it shows some of the surfaces a little better. We will see what NGC thinks in a few days. I will post pics of the final graded coin when it comes back to me. Thanks    |

With my limited knowledge on Indian Head cents, I would say this is an MS-65. I am looking forward to seeing NGC's opinion. |

Oh my. What a first post!
MS65 RB. NGC might go MS65* RB.
Cannot quite get a grasp on color, but it looks very nice in the luster department as well.

Thanks everyone! I guess that was a good first post here. Hopefully I will have a grade next week. NGC Express service takes 48 hrs once they get the coin (or so they say). Went out today, so hopefully the grade will be posted next week. Here are a few others taken in different lights from different angles. I'm still trying to figure out the coin photography thing. As for the color of the coin, there are some light pastel colors under the luster on both sides.    |

The diamonds have more detail in this one, less scratches: MS65 BN

I hope I'm wrong but there may be enough wear on the eyebrow, ear, feathers, letters, and ribbon it may come back AU58.

I am worried about an AU-58 too like CC trader, but hopefully my suspicions are unfounded.
