What's your grade, and any problems? (I see none) Coin is raw, for my raw set.   |

It looks really nice. I will have to let the experts offer a grade though.

This is the only recent raw I've seen from you that would deserve a TPG. But keep in mind these are inexpensive all the way up to MS-67. If you are spending more than a bill on this the likely return grade will be a 65, possibly a 66. In either case it's still worth the TPG. Much over a bill, and you really should just get the TPG to begin with. (I need to get that last line so I can copy and paste it to you)  |

I'd say that it's definitely a 67 and likely a 68.

I would suggest a grade in the MS-63/64 range.
The fields are very nice on both sides, but I see far too many marks/scrapes on the robe of Justice for the coin to earn a full gem grade. I will add, however, that over the last year or so, I have been amazed at the surface condition of many coins I see in MS-65 holders. This one might be given a similar grade.

Don't see it over a 64 personally, but it sure is a nice example.

*******UPDATE*********
I sent this to ANACS last month, and the results are in:
MS-62 (Straight)
Not a happy camper on this. I was in full agreement on a minimum of 64 on this one. Super clean, and full of luster. Maybe I/we missed something?

Interesting. I would have thought our experts nailed it.

Justice's robe on the obverse is a focal point in determining the coin's grade and it does have quite a few nicks, etc. Still, I thought the coin would merit at least a grade of MS-63.

Yeah, other then the nicks on the robe, the coin is pretty spotless. The fields are so clean, it's ridiculous.

Sure looks better that 62 to me!
