I did notice a ding on the rim around 3:30 or so. Not sure if that would be enough to cause a details grade. I have not bid on this yet. The reverse is much nicer than the obverse.

wow didn't notice that one. There is also one on the reverse below the L in dollar.

Have to see what forum says about rim dings. Not sure about the "details" designation or not.

I didn't see that one. If it were gradable could it get a PL?

MS-63, possibly PL. Rim hits seem pretty minor.

Agree with MS63 but just makes it. No way to tell for sure if it makes PL from the photos, but it may.
Rest in Peace

Not PL. Not details. Simple MS-62 that might make 63 on a Friday.

Depends on the cheek. Are the marks scuffs in the luster, light scratches or deep gouges? If they're deep gouges then it would be limited to 62. If they are light scratches like they appear then 63 is possible. If they are no more than surface scuffs in the luster/frost then MS64 is possible. Tough call from those pics but my guess is MS63 and possibly PL.

Agree that you can't tell a whole lot about these surfaces disturbances because the flashback might be exaggerating them. Good shot at 63PL.

MS63. I dont think the tiny dings would warrant a details designation but who knows. depends on the day I guess on this one. PL? possible

I took a chance, won the coin for $88. I think it is a good price if MS62 or better. I guess we'll see what it looks like once I receive it. I can return it. I'll post my own pics of it once received.
