It's hard taking pictures when the slab is in the middle of way. I will answer that most marks are on the slab. I checked out the coin with a loop. It's pretty clean.
I don't like the looks of this coin at all . Some denticles on both sides not consistent to an MS coin unless that's one heck of a glare . and I don't like the general skin on this coin ( imitation luster ) like a plating job . Ungradable Details coin . Sorry guys but I always call it as I see it !
No one got this 100%, but don't worry I'm the same way. I spent a while comparing this coin to photograde. The reverse IMO is MS64 RD. The front is where it gets tricky, the slight dark spot around 3 o clock makes the coin RB. But other than some contact marks on the face the coin is very clean. I would say MS 63 RB. Comparing to photograde they have the same brown mark, so I question the grade given of MS62. I would have graded the coin Net MS 63RB.
The case is scratched which makes it look like the coin is in rougher shape and because I didn't use my DSLR and Macro lens the iPhone isn't the best camera for taking macro pictures resulting in some calling the coin details (just as an FYI, I'm not buying slabbed details unless its to post in an album and these aren't going in an album).
In the end I picked up the coin as I liked it, I liked the eye appeal and the price was great, I would say cherry picked but that term is way over used.
