Great color and luster. Looks like an easy MS65 and MS66 would be no surprise but the hit behind the lips might hold it down.

There are very few hits that are in areas of concern. Luster is undisturbed. No indication of cleaning or dipping. I'd give it a righteous 65.

Wow! What a beauty. 65 or 66, this one's had a sheltered life.

VERY nice Scarpe!

MS-65 at least would be my guess

Yes, 64. Obverse pic seems to minimize some issues, including light diagonal scratches starting in upper left field and lots of ticks on neck.

Gold is soft but does not tarnish easily...brilliant luster.
While this coin appears to be a GEM, the cheek and mouth area
scratching brings final grade down to MS-64 IMHO. ENJOY!

Thanks for updating. That coin is very conservatively graded. Today it should no problem with a MS64 grade and the "right" (read big $$ player) submitter would get a 65 on it pretty easily.
