That is one nice coin. I would give it at least a MS63, but am concerned about the rims and the spot just in front of George's nose. Couple of bag marks, but all in all a very nice coin. Was this from the Mint's recent collection release?

Hard to give an accurate grade from the pictures. Pictures are small and there is too much light glare. From what I can see it looks very nice.

ICCS ms64, possibly an ms63.

Reverse and 'hit' on face mean less to ICCS than the fields.

Has Trends updated the price on these since the hoard was released?

Definitely one of the better hoard coins I have seen. MS63 and possibly a 64. Very nice.

That looks like an extremely nice coin...I would not bother getting it graded...I heard PCGS will only grade them with the special label with a minimum of 20....and it will probably end up costing you $100+ per coin.....ICCS will be more less expensive, but it all depends on how big your order is.....

Besides, you dont' need them to tell you that it's a nice coin. I got mine graded because the ICCS flips take up less room in my safety deposit box, then if they were in their boxes....

Hi, this coin really looks good to me. Very little bag marks and the fields seem very clean. I would guess a MS-64 with PCGS and MS-63 with ICCS. PCGS may be more expensive but will probably get you more if you are planning to resale.

Attached is my coin which I plan to get graded by PCGS, hoping for an MS-63. A hard holder is nice for soft metal coins...

Good luck !!
