$38. I love the '67 with Rays. I also got this for less than I expected. One weird thing is that CENTS appears to not be well centered under the 5 in the reverse. The CENTS seems too far off to the left. Is this normal? Thoughts? Thanks!

The alignment of CENTS to the left of the 5 in reverse seems pretty normal looking at other examples online.

All the leaves have full spines, the calatrava cross has a full interior outline, reverse is fully struck and all the stars are fully split. No way this is f12.

weak obverse strike. I normally grade these by the reverse and this is quite nice. all the lettering is sharp, the stars are separated and the bars bold. XF40. I display mine in my folder with the reverse up as that's what makes this coin. even if the coin came back as a fine you done good on the price. I think its way past that.

Weak obverse center strike. Looks great, especially for the money
