I picked up this Tombac nickel a while ago and was wondering what grade it is. I got it to complete my set of Canadian War Nickels and also because I love the gold colour of untarnished Tombac. The colouring on the coin is way nicer in real life. The pictures just don't do it justice. (especially when shot through 2x2 holders.)
Thanks in advance!

Small die cracks above 'EORG', and below truncation of neck,
ding in front of King's nose, and on rim above 'D', (all on the obverse).
Excellent mint lustre.
MS64 details.

MS63. I would grade it higher if fewer dings and abrasions.

Great colour, though.

The reverse could pass as a 64 but because of the dings on the obverse, it would be a nice 63
