MS 63/64. Without the cheek scratch, MS 65.

MS-63. A lovely example, but the cheek scratch hurts the eye appeal.

The glamour shots look a lot better the the slabbed image. Toning appears to be secondary. MS63 is my guess.

MS-60, I'll take off points for the scratch, but it warrants a straight grade.

Even if this coin makes it into a straight holder, I would ask myself, do I want to own this coin, scratched at the most prominent location, and housed in a straight holder? Unless it was at a steep discount for the grade, my answer would be no.

This is a good example of PCGS net grading for the cheek scratch. TheTrue View glamor photos of this coin can not really be graded accurately.

Their photos always make the coin look better than it really is.
