dave700x Rest in Peace United States 10625 Posts	Posted 06/23/2014 9:29 pm I think it could squeak out a 65. Nice coin for a tough year/ mint mark! Report this Post to the Staff
Jon K Pillar of the Community United States 723 Posts	Posted 06/28/2014 12:30 am Photos could be better, but from what I can see I will venture a "65" with just a couple light marks on the high cheek and the neck. Maybe a few in the hair. Report this Post to the Staff

mdpmedia Pillar of the Community United States 3546 Posts	Posted 07/01/2014 03:30 am Hello, Taking a photo with the lens orifice more perpendicular to the surface of the coin should clarify my choice now between a 64 and 65. One can vary the position of the lightning source to minimize annoying glare radiating from both the slab and luster of the the coin etc. Glare virtually always distracts from obtaining an accurate grade... I realize that this thread is about the grade of a coin but optimizing photographic methods will produce more precise grading estimates from CCF members. Finally, one may wish to review the following URL which is one of the better summaries geared toward the photography of more difficult MS and proof coins: http://www.sigma-2.com/camerajim/cjgcoins.htm IMO, mdpmedia Report this Post to the Staff
