PL-66... the reverse die that struck that coin must have been near the end of its life... the die crack on the reverse beads is quite long...

Interesting...I though about PL but it seems to be struck slightly off center obv.. What gives this coin away as a PL strike?

The rims. Specimen strikes have square rims that look (and feel) like they are going to cut you. The coin is not fully struck like a specimen either... the die burn marks on the upper neck speak PL to me...

SPP is right, the coin is not a specimen strike.
Doesn't matter to PCGS though,to them 1973's are only PL or MS, specimen strike LB quarters can't be distinguished once they cross the border.
"Dipping" is not considered cleaning...
