Had this one for around 25 years, let me know your thoughts on grade and if its a details coin please. In hand it looks great until you magnify.   |

It is always tough to accurately grade using photos, but I would say MS65 most likely FSB. Very nice coin. What makes you believe it is a details coin?

AU-58+ , possible FSB . Real nice but I believe there is some wear around hair curls plus the lack of luster on this coin .  |

I too am curious as to what you're seeing under magnification that leads you to believe it's a details coin? I'm seeing surfaces that are flat, lacking mint lustre but I'm wondering if it's an artifact of too much light diffusion. Are the images true to the in hand look? And to CCF! |

Regarding the details question, I'm still new to grading my own coins. In hand it looks great, I was just worried the cloudiness in the fields on the front in the photos (magnified) meant it was dipped or something.
Thanks for the replies, this is a great forum.

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."
