Reverse chatter? Can't tell...rubs on coat and left fields? It just isn't clear enough to accurately judge, is an OK reverse strike, typical worn Obverse die, but is a nice overall from what is seen, MS63/64RD

I'm with Crazy; too much chatter below the memorial. Probably just bag marks, but never the less ...

Biedrcoins > What Memorial do you see on a Wheat cent ? This 33-D is a least MS-66RD .

How would I grade this? First I'd remove it from the holder (2x2?) THEN I'd form an opinion.

Full Red, never cleaned or dipped. No black spots = no pepper, which I love. Typical weak obverse strike, stronger than average reverse strike.
None of which affects the numerical technical grade.
It looks 65 Red, and possibly 66, but sharper photos are needed to determine that.

Are you planning on submitting it?

If the majority believe this is 65 or better I will submit. It looks like taking out out of the 2X2 is needed to get a more accurate view, but I believe this will be submitted. Thanks so far for your input, Will update after the holidays.

Put me in the 65 column. Would love to see the results after it's submitted.

I can't see the fields well enough, too over-exposed.
Around 65RD

Certainly looks 65 or better to me! I'd submit it.
