Certainly mint state with the booming luster typical of this issue. No, to those thinking otherwise, this has not been dipped.

I really want a 65 on this but it's just got a bit more tiny chatter than I can see for that. So 64+.

Nothing remotely distracting.

...don't lick it...
Rest in Peace

Apparently CSC scare everyone to silence.

Too bad. They are exceptional buys right now.

I also think it doesn't help that the GTG's got moved for CSC's. It's a much quieter area over here.

And SHHHH!! If word gets out on them being a bargain, I'll never complete my set!

64, nice example for sure, but another forgettable design. Leave fat little animals off coins.

I love it. I'm just not a mint state grader.

I suppose this is the only time a dam-building rodent has been on a US coin? (Saved the popular term to deter any jokesters...!)

MS-65, and I really like how this design looks.
