This is an 1968 UHC silver end of a roll coin with very nice eye appeal what grade would you give it on a good day

MS-67 for me, only some evidence of bag marks.

Nice looking coin! A couple of dings on the reverse and something distracting above REGINA. MS65 HC Perhaps UHC in hand.
"Dipping" is not considered cleaning... -from PCGS website

These are three more nice 1968 silver coins in the higher grades, if I remember right I think the middle and top coin came from the same roll as the first and second coins in begging of this post the MS-66 I got from a different roll. 1968 silver 25 cent coins are a good year for roll searching a lot of really nice strikes in this year I have only found the 1 MS-67 and a few MS-66 but have found several MS-65 in cameo, Heavy cameo's but never a Ultra Heavy Cameo over MS-64, but I'm sure there are a few out in the wild waiting to be found. Has anyone got a 1968 25 cent silver in Ultra Heavy Cameo in MS-65 or higher, if so it would be nice to see or hear of?

^ Doesn't it need to have cameo on both sides for the UHC designation? I did the ICCS grading workshop a decade ago and I seem to remember them saying that!

KHatt, I agree I like both sides of the coin to have the UHC grade, and I think you are correct about it being both sides to make it a true UHC.
Yes johnnysprawl, that seller does have a lot of nice coins for sale I used to purchase 25 cent coins from him in the past when I was putting together a high end 25 cent collection that I since sold off.
