Better the slab than the coin. It looks very nice.

I'll have to say MS-64, possibly a 65.

65FB, I think. As I recall, PCGS is tough on Mercs.

MS65 I'm not sure this one has sharp enough separation on the bands to go FB, but it's really close.

MS-65, center bands look weak on the right side so most likely not FB.

If that's a nick under the eye it would definetely keep it out of 66 catagory. I'll go with 65. It's really close to FB but could go either way. To me it looks like it

Luster in-hand is that of a 65-66. Strike is that of a 64-65. It's FB in hand, but juuuuuuust barely. Slabbed 64FB.  |
