Just got this one. Thought the cheek looked pretty clean. I also like the die breaks on both sides. It is a great looking coin. What are your thoughts on the grade? Natural Light   Lamp - this lighting makes the scuffs look much worse than they are.   Here are the worst marks  |

Face, neck and the Eagle are pretty scuffed up. No better than 64 in my book.

Very nice example - tons of eye appeal.
Whats that black smudge reverse rim at 10:30? Is it toning on the coin or some of your background material overlapping the edge?
Take a look at my other hobby ... http://www.jk-dk.art |

I with the MS64 group. Too many hits on the Eagles breasted cheek. A couple photos might indicate PL. Very nice coin.

I think it falls short of MS65. I would give it MS64+ . It's a really nice looking coin. Registry sold prices are looking $250 to $300 for MS64+

Very nice at MS-64+ I'd say. And based on the last picture provided it could be this VAM as well. Die gouge in the mouth of the eagle. 1883-CC VAM-5A Doubled Date, CC/CC, Clashed n & t, Die scratch wing. Edited by GMS5

Nice MS-65. I don't think the reverse chatter will prevent that.

Confused at the 65 grades. The nose and cheek are both fairly banged up, and the reverse which is normally stunning on a 65 has some chatter.
