I'd guess a solid MS 66. I would go one grade higher if what I believe may be bumps from grease on the die weren't there but I think these are pretty common on this year. I suppose it could be gas bubbles also but I'm not 100% sure. Nice die crack at the right base of the memorial by the way. Beautiful coin.

I like the die crack on the reverse. Look at the bottom right corner of the building foundation.
VERY nice cent. MS66 with a shot at 67.

I will say MS-67. Hard to find any flaw with that coin.

If I was you, I'd spend some time comparing images of this coin to ha.com PSGS MS-68's....if there are any on there. It's almost worth a gamble to slab it because a 68 would be worth about $2k. A 67 is only listed as $65 though....so it'd definately be a gamble.

Sweet! That plastic with the + should add a pretty "penny" to the value!

I'm still trying to figure out why they didn't 68 that coin. Some surface imperfections we can't see in the photo? The + designation is a cop-out IMO.
