MS64 at least and a good chance at a 65.

With today's easier grading,..it would probably come back as an MS65.

At best.....I melted all of my regular AU or MS ..67 dollars and so many other years.... a few years back when the silver and gold jumped up..
I might have held a few back from the pot,...but I wasn't here yet..

Thanks for that @wireman09, great coin, and a nice
grade. I got the 65 part! Can anyone chime in on the
difference between an MS and an SP grade on this type
of coin. What markers should I look for.
Just looking to learn more here. Thanks in advance.
I have put in pics of the SP65 for comparison. I
dropped the bloody thing and had to send it in for
reslab, didn't pay the full $40. Paying it now in re-shipping.

Thanks Don, and a good looking SP65 dollar you have there.
In 1967 there were three different dollars issued, MS, PL, and SP. The SP and PL were issued in sets specially for collectors. The PL came in the pliofilm packaging and the SP were issued in two different special presentation sets. One of the SP sets came with the 1967 $20 gold coin and the other came with a silver medallion. Both the PL and SP dollars have mirror finish and sharp devices as these were issued by the mint with special care as they were for collectors. The SP were of higher quality than the PL.
The MS were business strikes issued in bags and rolls for circulation. This is why it is much harder to find high grade MS dollars in comparison to PL or SP as they were all high grade. Hope this helps explain the differences in the three types of dollars of 1967.

Thanks for that explanation @wireman09.
So can you tell a PL or SP from an MS
by the rim (square or flat as it were)
or any other sort of indicator? I have a
Specimen set, without the Gold, and the rim
looks very square. Is that the only difference,
noting the mirrored fields and frosted devices?
