I know I've shown this coin in a previous thread but not being in the grading section no one responded with a grade.
Hoping now in the grading section I'll get some opinions of the grade, it would be much appreciated.
Here are two new pictures taken with a filtered flash.
You'll have to believe me the coin has a nice luster, I just can't seem to master capturing luster in my photo's

Cheers, Bill

Is that some clashing behind King George's head?

You're correct it's a clash.
This coin was discussed in this earlier thread.

63, probably a 64.

I respect what 'nickelsguy' always has to say, but in this case I disagree. In my opinion, ICCS doesn't give a hoot about what's on the reverse of a coin as I think they weigh 90%obverse/10% reverse, expecially when grading MS coins.

doubleeagle59 I asked at a Torex beer table years ago "why he(Brian) was so harsh on geo5th and 6th nickels" reply was reverse die burn was an instant point down.....as it does not appear as often on silver coins.....kinda makes sense.....But I do agree, 90 obverse for sure.
