I'm sure it looks a lot nicer in hand. The pics aren't telling us everything.

To be honest I arrived at MS-66 RED myself. I thought about MS-67 RED cause boy that reverse has got that superb luster. Well did obverse match that. To me that was a toss up. Look below the final "T" in "Trust" cause those three little contact marks were what tipped the balance for me to deny it 67.

Few nicks both sides, and the 'M' in 'AMERICA' is a bit knocked up. Rims OK
I disagree with MS66.
I think MS63. The grader missed that bashed up 'M'!
Certainly not MS66, anyway.


You're looking at 2 over-exposed pictures, it's VERY difficult to figure out a grade from the given information. NGC and PCGS put most of a grade on eye appeal and luster. A few tiny nicks don't have much of an effect on grade unless they're in a field.
