IMO 62 UHC
Just too many contact marks,considering the extremely high mintage and survival rate of these, this should be a bullion value coin.
PS blunt 5 large beads.
"Dipping" is not considered cleaning...

Lots of Marks, IMO it's an MS-62HC but ICCS may have gone 63 or 64.
I compared it to mine, it's also a blunt 5 Large beads. Worth Melt + a small premium that you see for Canadian Silver Dollars. I picked up 3 Good AU Silver dollars today for melt and that's about as good as it gets so I'd say yours in more valuable than melt.

TYPE 3 LB B5 and a melter grade is totally irrelevant unless a 64 HC or better. This should ICCS MS 63 HC based on the current ICCS all over the place new standards.

Actually this is a very nice looking coin in hand. No dispute on the marks but the coin has some of the nicest detail I've seen on a 65. Keep in mind the macro lens picks up a lot of detail so the marks are exaggerated. I've seen the few MS64s listed on ebay and even with poor pictures the bust and fields are relatively messy. I think this is one of those coins that overcame an MS64 on sharpness and eye appeal.  |

another example of ICCS 3 letter certificate OG. I would never pay 65 Cam money for this coin. IMHO

I've seen the grade already posted but I must say I would not have guessed ms65.
MS64 for my money.

As it's been pointed out to me in the past on these very boards and discussed at length many times before, ICCS gives high regard for quality of fields. I don't necessarily agree with that grading logic, but if you apply it to this coin and although it has numerous contact marks, it has very impressive detail and even more impressive fields. No signs of a wipe anywhere on this coin.
