Picked this up recently, always found it interesting. Feel free to throw out a grade. This is a VAM 1B Extra Hair 1923-P Peace dollar.

Coin does have a ton of luster and these picks are very tight Macro shots so they are going to amplify every nick and mark on the coin. Coin in hand is quite beautiful.

If the scratches on the reverse dont make it ungradeable, I would give it a 63 on a bad day, 64 on a normal one.
Rest in Peace

Nice darkside pick! it looks like an easy 63 to me. I'm not sure if the reverse would keep it from 64 as already mentioned

Toughie!

Looking at the point of the chin and shoulder, I can't say I'm 100% certain it hasn't circulated. The tip of the neck vee argues against circulation, though.
Rest in Peace
