Picked up this small date proof for $7 last week. It looks really good, except for the spot above the date. Opinions?

Took these today, different lighting and camera angle. This is more what it looks like in hand. Funny how the spot above the date looks lighter than the background in some pics, and darker in the other. Looking at it with your eye in natural light, it's somewhere in between.

Mostly, the height of the tip of the 6, and the shape of the 0 in 1960.

Small date, but pics are too dark to reveal surface details.

Damn, and I took them on the porch in direct sunlight! I'm having problems getting the light right on my pics.

Looks to be in the PF64 to PF65 range. Can't really assess color from the photos.

I agree with fenton. It looks like it's in that general range.

100% small date, just look at the 6, that's all you need.

Based on the photos where the coin falls between them, I'll say PR-64RB. Looks like a nice coin!
