what do you guys think of this one? just won this one for $7. I graded it at 67 for bidding but I think it could be higher. once it gets to 67 I have a hard time grading these.

So do I!

From the pictures, I can't see anything wrong with this one, except a tiny mark after the date.
I have a few superb quality Mint encapsulated proofs from the Royal Australian Mint to compare the quality with.

Skin texture on the face is good.

If it isn't PF68 or 9, I would like others in this thread to explain in detail why. Perhaps 'in the hand' with a 10x loupe, a few minuscule flaws can be found.

But I ain't really seein' nuthin' wrong from these pics!

I'm not sure that any proof coin could be appropriately graded from a picture of this angle and lighting. That said, it does look like a high grade coin.

That is simply a stellar proof. Also, some stellar photography! PF68 at least.

Just received this bad boy. This coin has no flaws. The little mark near the date is not on the coin. I think it could go PF69. Do they ever grade a 70? Shes a beauty and looks real good in the type set. Cant beat this one for $9 with shipping

Looks like a PF-68 TO 69 to me.
