Just got this beauty in from my Hawaiian source and would like everyone's opinion as to grade. While not cameo, it is a beautiful golden color and Lady Liberty even has a Victorian birth mark (not a scratch - a discoloration ). Not to be confused with a flaw - it's a feature.. Any and all comments/grade suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Paleoguy

Looks PR-63-ish to me. The field spot behind Liberty's head will likely take off a point and the cheek spot likewise would be a grade negative. Proof "flash" is very hard to photograph well so I assume this coin has better reflectivity than is shown in the photos. No cameo, as noted.

TPGs are very tough on proofs; it's like they expect them to be perfect or something! In any case, this is a tasty little coin. Congrats!
Rest in Peace

Other than the melanoma, it appears to be a very clean coin. Very nice pick!

I agree that this appears to be around a PR-63.

PR62/63 sounds about right I've had a few of these I bought at PR63 raw, they always came back PR62 dang it.
