I think the direct light source pictures I take at night are misleading and too saturated and bright. Here are some pics in natural light:

IndianGoldEagle is correct at MS-62. Man, I just need to learn to take better photos I guess.

Your second set of photos nailed it johnny, they gave a good indication of color and luster which were lacking in your first set of photos.

thanks for the info....and probably true. I probably am the only one who likes the first set with direct light, because it shows how strong the cartwheel luster by the contrast in the fields. However, it also hides some areas that are lustrous (like around liberty's eyes and nose) which could indicate a higher grade. and it also magnifies surface flaws beyond reality. I think I really need both sets together.
