MS-65. Eye Appeal 8/10. Really excellent snag.

I dithered between 64 & 65 because of the three point cheek railroad track.

Can you give us more light on the cheek and left obverse field?

mox - 65, without any real clarity on the left obverse field, and also the central cheek area, where many shadowy scuffs are visible?

I suggest that the obverse pic does not fully represent the condition of this coin.

You are probably right, Frog. I just get tired of saying photos chew on old shoes.

the 91 is know for typically weak strikes. this is well above average for strike. hard to say if it had a light dip but I don't think that matters. I've seen coins like this in MS66 slabs so I'm at a conservative MS65. the railroad marks are a little distracting but I don't think they are enough to lower the grade a full point

Hard to see what's really lurking in the fields so will say 65ish.

Btw did these decline in price in 65? I saw early 2000-2008 coins at between 5-7k and more recent ones sold at about 2.5k....
