Stephen-P Valued Member Japan 294 Posts	Posted 02/14/2021 06:37 am I already put it in a flip, but these pictures might show the imperfections better. Little scuffage on the cheek but it has nice luster. Report this Post to the Staff
sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21788 Posts	Posted 02/14/2021 06:49 am Hair over Lib's ear slightly weak at that point, but I think it is due to a slightly weak strike. Hard to tell from the picture, but I think that the luster is undisturbed over Lib's ear. Slight scuffing of luster on Lib's cheek, and in the field in front of Her nose. Slight variation of the toning doesn't really detract from eye appeal. MS-65. Report this Post to the Staff

Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 02/14/2021 09:35 am I'll say MS-63, long shot at 64. Edited by Coinfrog 02/14/2021 10:56 am Report this Post to the Staff
panzaldi Bedrock of the Community United States 18665 Posts	Posted 02/14/2021 09:54 am MS63. the 87(P) are common. the coin would need to grade MS66 to be worth slabbing Report this Post to the Staff
Zurie Pillar of the Community United States 5672 Posts	Posted 02/14/2021 10:09 am I'd say MS-63. Report this Post to the Staff
Slider23 Pillar of the Community United States 4469 Posts	Posted 02/14/2021 11:54 am 63/64 The cheek and field marks in front of nose and mouth will keep it out of a 65 holder. Report this Post to the Staff
Stephen-P Valued Member Japan 294 Posts	Posted 02/14/2021 12:32 pm Ahhh, that's why I'm asking. If I were to go based on what Coinfacts shows I'd go 65 because the luster is all in tact. It seems like the way grade is not only how many dings a coin has but a balance between that and the amount of luster is preserved. The luster on this piece is gorgeous, but I guess it all depends on who's grading the coin! Report this Post to the Staff
dave700x Rest in Peace United States 10625 Posts	Posted 02/14/2021 12:34 pm I think it might just squeak into 64. Certainly not worth TPG grading. Report this Post to the Staff

psuman08 Pillar of the Community United States 1773 Posts	Posted 02/14/2021 10:39 pm I would also go MS-63 and would not suggest slabbing. In the meantime, flatten those staples with a pair of pliers! Report this Post to the Staff
IndianGoldEagle Bedrock of the Community United States 36745 Posts	Posted 02/24/2021 4:25 pm I think the obverse field marks are deep enough to hold this to MS-63. Report this Post to the Staff
