a coin I am watching, but I am worried it doesn't match the grade assigned..

Looking-For-Honest-Opinions..1938--Graded-MS-64

Looking-For-Honest-Opinions..1938--Graded-MS-64

would be a slight upgrade for me, if it is a ms 64.. but I am leaning towards a ms62-63 tops..

dings on the face would prevent me from giving it a 64 but I do have to say the rest of the coin is beautiful. clean fields, good strike (besides a bit of die burn) and a nice "frostiness" to it.

ICCS looks at the fields more than at the devices. The fields are nice and clean here. That probably explains the 64 grade

I would agree with aghoarder, the coin is in fantastic shape other then a few small dings on the face(even though I personally don't like the look of die burn), however I would say it's a 64 in my eyes the dings are small and the magnification we are seeing it at makes it obvious but it's large magnification. The photos seem good and genuine. It's not the best MS-64 for sure but I have no doubt it would regrade MS64 at least 4 out of 5 times at ICCS. If it were to downgrade it would be a nice MS-63.
I think the big thing is if you feel the coin is a lower grade then pay the lower price or don't buy it, buy the coin not the holder you're the one who's going to be looking at it and enjoying it.

Even if it was a MS63, right now the bids are low.
Shipping seems a little high though.
