$157, Seller's pics. I'm thinking probably 63 with a shot at 64 RD with these pics? Excited to see this one in hand.

Nice looking coin. I don't pretend to be able to grade IHC's well but looks 65. Much nicer than my spotty 64. RD, color looks natural.

Really hurts to see a coin handled like this. Be sure you have full return privileges.

Yeah, I was a bit concerned about the naked handling too, but the coin looked nice enough to see. I do have return privileges so I'm not overly worried.
Rest in Peace

better photos oriented correctly would help. based on photos MS64RD maybe 65 but lighting is bad also so who knows. no one should touch a coin like this even by the rims without gloves on.

at that price, with return privilege's it could be worth a shot especially if it pulls a RD color

not sure about this one, obverse looks beautiful and original, but the reverse colour seems a bit off, and I noticed some hairlines above "ONE"(though they are much more apparent on camera than in person). Will probably end up sending it back. I'm still having trouble capturing colour and clarity in my pictures, the coin looks a lot more "red" in hand, especially the obverse.

Color does look a bit questionable. Seller's photos didn't accurately represent it so I think a return is warranted.
