I'll say MS-64, but not a fan. Brown and ... well, brown says it all.

63 The value depends on the toning quality. Hard to tell from seller's photos.

Yes, these are seller's photos, but they're pretty good I think. I'll post mine, but not sure I'll be able to do better. I did get a new phone so maybe...

Looks like it's in an NGC holder and you paid $91 so MS63 is my guess too.

Blurry photos make an accurate grade almost impossible.

a little better than average strike for this year. obverse toning imo will reduce eye appeal if the photo is true. I'm not seeing much chatter or field issues on the obverse based on these photos. some rub on the high points on the reverse as well as the fields but I'm not seeing any scratches or hairlines. without the toning I think it would grade around MS64 but gotta deduct for the eye appeal. MS63

MS63 all day long. Textbook I think, if not for the toning it may have snuck into the MS64 range. Hard to be sure with the photos though.

This came in. Thoughts? Bright uniform yellow/orange toning throughout obverse. Has blue edge toning along the entire circumference of the obverse which lights up under a light. TPG opinion in 48 hrs. Thanks!

Shot with light running east-west.

The seller's photos hurt the value of the coin with muted luster and toning. Your photos enhances the toning, luster and the value.
