i figured that we were in need of another you vs ICCS since it seems as if we haven't had one for a while. this coin was a recent buy and is not with me yet so I am using the images from where I got it(they are likely nicer than what I could pull off as far as pics go anyways). if you are familiar with the coin or know for a fact where it came from/ what grade it is, please step aside and let others get their fair crack at iti will post the results in 24 hours     those are all pics of the same coin but are 2 sets taken years apart. Feel free to call me Will.

there's some stuff in the pics that looks like it's on the coin but that's just on the ICCS holder.

I'll be the first to take a guess, and it is a guess, but I will say SP67 Heavy Cameo.

Quote: I'll be the first to take a guess, and it is a guess, yes, it is a bit of a guessing game when it isn't a circulation strike isn't it. usually you would rely on marks and stuff to grade but with PL and SP coins all the flaws are usually quite unnoticeable, especially through photos.

Educated guess. But still a guess. Such is online grading. Your name and previous posts lead me to believe you try to purchase exceptional dollars. The reverse rims and goose aren't quite up to snuff for a high SP. Therefore PL 66 UHC

If in an old ICCS embossed holder, Pl66. If newer, I'd say 67. Either way, an UHC. Gorgeous coin!

Very nice! It will go well with your SP67 (if you still have that one)

thankyou, it will go very nicely with the specimen example   I've been waiting since the end of the auction to be able to put them side by side and drool over them

so I got the coin in hand today, it is a truly beautiful coin    it has some cracks on the ICCS flip(2 letter certificate-OK) which will mean I must send it for re-holdering but other than that I am super happy. I also got to see the flip struck 1967 dollar that my LCS won from the same auction and mah oh man! is it breath taking!.
