My wife and I are wanting to purchase this coin.
It looks appealing with nice enough luster and detail.
If you could give us your opinion on the grade, that
would assist us in a very helpful manner.
Greatly Appreciate!

Opinions so far in a very narrow range.
The narrow range should help with being confident about the value.
MS-63.

IF there are rubs on the high points then you have an AU-58.
OR
Those scratches above IN GOD WE TRUST could keep it to AU.
BUT
MS-64 wouldn't surprise me.

The strike is close to 100% full.
Rest in Peace

Ok , cons: We have a bad rim hit on obverse at 9:00 , softly struct sun and rays , light scratches right obverse field . On reverse I see a weak head on the Eagle and some kind of what looks like a raised mark above the S mint mark . Pros : Nice split thumb , Her entire skirt is virtually hit and scratch free , left shoe is nicely struct . MS-64 . A 65 would not surprise me .

I'll go to MS 63 because of the light scratches on obverse, but the biggest negative for me is that ring ding around 9 O'Clock (by the L in liberty). Its still in my opinion a beautiful coin that I would love to have. This is a case of beautiful eye appeal.

Take it for what it is worth, but I am troubled by the placement of the mint mark. It's rotated further "left" than any I've ever seen.

MS-63 but not sure those obverse hairlines are on the coin or the slab.

Obverse has a small nick at 9 o'clock on the rim, lite scratches in the field right side, Strong striking on both sides, looks like a small die break left side leaf to rim edge also at 9 o'clock, very strong S mint mark. Solid MS 63, I go MS64 if it has better luster! A get her grinner!

Appreciate all the help and criteria here on this coin.
We may have this coin in hand by this weekend and will post the updated slab grade.
Happy Regards,

I'd be at MS-64 on it. Really sharp reverse.
