No question mint state as the cascading luster is very evident.

Can't get closer to a grade until I can see closer shots of the center areas of both obverse and reverse.

It will help if you can take the photos outside of the container. Be sure to only touch the coin on its edges, not on the sides. Put something soft underneath where you are working so that if you drop the coin it is not damaged.

Cut the photo so only the coin, not the background, is showing.

I've taken a few more pictures -- a bit early for the sun but took them with the assistance of a light (close-up kind)

If these aren't sufficient, please let me know and the sun will be up soon. Still getting the hang of the picture part of this ... some of these are bigger than others. I'll figure it out soon than later.

Thank you.

ms64. It looks really nice and clean but looks a little softly struck on both sides.
IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS
THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: "It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

Thank you everyone for your opinions and suggestions -- added a few more pictures as the sun arrived.

Not sure why the Reverse pictures have a blue-ish tint -- no filters were used.

Thank you in advance for your opinions--they are greatly appreciated by this newly addicted coin enthusiast.

Happy Saturday!

Tough call. Some of those pics seem to show so-called "cabinet friction".

Some of those photo's give it that polished look but it may just be the tilt and lighting.
