From those photos the only thing we know for sure is that it's mint state.

Graded MS-66 by who?

From the pictures it doesn't look like it to me.

MS-62. Too much chatter on the obverse.
Rest in Peace

I would guess this coin to be MS62 also, from the looks of it; hard to tell.

Funny, every coin in those holders are way over graded, but sometimes if you can get them at the right price they are nice honest coins... well except for the "grade" of course. MS-66 tends to be 62-64 in my experience. Bought one that was "MS 63 DMPL" that actually graded as MS62 Cameo DMPL.. they got ONE close ;)

I'm not so sure it's mint state. The field between the wreath and eagle on the right side looks to have significant loss of luster. Liberty's cheek and the field by her face show similar dull surface. Based on these photos I wouldn't risk more than AU-58 money for a purchase.

Nope it was USCG coin grading. Which now from this forum I know the might be off a little on their grading.
