I always have trouble grading larger coins for some reason:

The luster is really pretty good for a CuNi coin, even though it is relatively EDS (the Apollo contrail is plainly visible and crisp at full resolution).

I was thinking more of MS-62. It has lots of nicks.

But still very nice!

many of the "nicks" are annealing chatter. It's definitely a candidate MS-64 coin.

@c99999: That's a bit better than I thought; you know your Ikes, so I'll take your word.
