I picked up an early Jefferson over the weekend and wanted to see what the CCF has to say in comparison to PCGS.

Thank you for your interest and comments!

Portico well struck but the steps are missing.
I think I'm seeing the "orange peel" effect, esp. on the reverse over the dome.
If so that's a sign that it was struck with a late-state die (and could account for the lack of steps).

Too many "if's" for me to grade.

Portico...(I had to look that one up.) Colonnaded porch or entrance to a structure, or a covered walkway supported by regularly spaced columns. The portico is a principal feature of Greek temple architecture and thus a prominent element in Roman and all subsequent Classically inspired structures.

I wish that this one was a MS-66. I will settle (for now) on this grade for the variety;
