joseph_curwen Valued Member United States 69 Posts	Posted 05/17/2014 8:21 pm MS-64. Not quite full steps from what I can see, but close. A nice coin from an early die state. -Jos. Curwen, Gent. Edited by joseph_curwen 05/17/2014 8:21 pm Report this Post to the Staff
shermae Valued Member United States 259 Posts	Posted 05/17/2014 8:57 pm I would also say MS64 but can't see the details well enough to determine how many hits/dings the coin may have. If there really are very few, could be a 65 or 66. Luster would also have a role in a higher grade and in this picture the coin seems to have somewhat impaired luster. Definitely agree with Joseph that it's an early die state based on the amount of detail visible on Monticello, Jefferson's hair details, and the boldness of the lettering.

1000_Rubles Valued Member United States 258 Posts	Posted 05/28/2014 10:21 pm I'd say either a MS-64 or a MS-65, from the photos it appears to come down to the strike on the steps. Report this Post to the Staff
