I'd love your opinions on the grade of this lovely coin.

Seller has put XF+ and signs of contact on reverse, I am looking to pick this coin up in MS and this looks like a really good candidate.

Certainly seems to have the luster of a mint state coin!

Received it finally.

Took my own pics. There's an MS65 listed on ebay that seems extremely similar. It's such a nice looking coin I love it. Could it be better than MS63?

Is the rim over the PEsos okay?

There's a small scratch above Pesos, but the actual rim is fine except their is a very very small rim ding at the bottom edge of the reverse.

I'will say MS-62/64, but this is the first time I have examined a Mexican coin...

You know what, I'm sending a few coins in to NGC soon so I might just send this in out of curiosity. Would be awesome to come back MS65 or MS66.

Uncirculated Details, can't win them all. Got a 65 and a 65+ however so I'm more than happy.
