See if I can do this one better. Taking the input from the last one, one flat picture is difficult to grade, so will try angles too. It was also mentioned about CAC grading, so Ill give you this, it has a green bean and a "W" sticker. Ill wait 48 hours this time :)     Edited by farrider11

looks ms64+. I was willing to ignore the two hits next to the E in E PLURIBUS UNUM and call it gem, but the reverse shows a long scratch across the O in ONE in the reverse that extends all the way to the mintmark which makes it fall just short in my book. Strong luster and eye appeal merit the green bean, but the hits and scratch keep it just outside of gem imho.

MS-65+ is my guess. I acknowledge everything NS said, but I've seen coins of this caliber slabbed even in MS-66.
The scratch NS mentioned is a bit distracting; but overall I like this one. Warrants CAC for the eye appeal and PL reverse.

I agree with numismatic student. 64+ Lovely coin.  The slab grading may indicate higher than this, to encourage customers to submit more coins. There is a huge difference in implied value, between 64+ and 66. Could be a minor scratch on the slab itself, but I don't think so. The inuendo from this, is that slabs need to be protected as well as providing protection for the coin inside. |

Scratch is on the coin, but is very enhanced by the photo. Under a 11 X 5 magnifying glass it is barley perceivable.

Slab may also indicate PL, but I don't think this is quite the case, some way short of this.

I'm in the MS66 camp on this one.

I'm assuming it's a 66 also. I don't see a 67, as a 65 it would look undergraded.

Yeah I'll stand by my technical grade of 65+. But I bet it's in a 66 slab.
