In searching 1964 penny roll, came across this beauty. Nice strike except for lower step area on reverse. Bag mark of 2nd column to the right of Lincoln. Small scuffed area above date. Scratch between ONE and CENTS on mylar.

At that grade it's all about eye appeal and luster which are difficult to judge from a scan.

I think the scan makes the coin look strange. Maybe because it was in a flip? Can you post a photo?

Thank you for reply! Just don't want to spend money on camera that takes good coin photos. After hours looking at spotted, greased, late die state, ect pennies this one without spots, eye popping strike, and beautiful fields; REALLY STOOD OUT!

Hard to tell from the pictures but it does look to be at least 65.
