The obverse looks nice, like at least 66 potential...but you have show the reverse for a grade.

The fields on that coin are great! Very tough to tell a 65 from a 66 without coin in hand though...

I am new to grading but what's holding it from being a 67

It's definitely a 66. Going from 66 to 67 requires strong luster which is nearly impossible to gauge using pictures. This coin may very well make it to 67, it's virtually mark-free....I like it as a 67 personally.

I would send it in to get graded by PCGS- They have as a $4,750 coin in MS67! As a 66 it's not bad at $200 either

That is a beautiful coin. Are you planning to have it graded by a TPG? If so, please post the results when it comes back!

It looks flawless to me, for sure a MS-66 it would be great if you could still get bigger photos.
