Grade? This was also graded by NGC already and I'll post the grade after a few replies.

I love the colour but those are some heavy hits on the cheek, I think it's a 64+ only due to that. I wouldnt be surprised if it graded higher though.

Jeesh. So hard to be objective about a coin you love. I'll say 66.
Rest in Peace

Yuck! I'd deduct 10 pts per side just because of metal deterioration...AU50, regardless of how many hits or not. Sure wouldn't pay slabbed price on that

Toning equals improper storage...period. AND, you Can't get MS coins among circulated coins in rolls either!

I get the idea you don't like toning. To each their own I suppose. I just find blast white coins very boring -- No character are uniqueness to them at all.

This toneing doesn't bother me at all . What bothers me is all those obverse hits . But now I'm caught between a rock and a hard place . I love the reverse and dislike the obverse . So what did NGC graded at ? NOT AU & NOT MS-66 .
This is not easy ; MS64.

All the toning throws me off, but I'll go with MS62 as a guess.

highly unusual for a coin to be so vividly toned on both sides..my guess would be ms 63-64, with questionable toning..

NGC was generous with the grade, MS-63 at best.
