Grade opinions welcome. Interesting (to me) how different angles, light, and photo size can make such a difference. Still working on photo skills... What magnification do graders use? 10x?

I feel it is a MS63 - the flat area on the eyebrow is typical of this King's strike - I have seen it on many coins and in most cases it's flat and rough. The reverse is very nice - lots of detail in the tail and on the beaver's coat. The fields look good on both the reverse and obverse.

May I ask that when you give a coin a grade, can you also explain your reasoning?
