Would like your opinion on this one-haven't purchased yet-it is graded by ICG as an MS-64. I think it looks better than a 64, so my question is do you guys agree? And if you do, what do you think it grades?

Thanks!

This is so common and so cheap in a major TPG 65 holder, why mess around with something like this?

there are tons of 65's out there and this one is short on strike so 64 would be the grade i'd put on it also
Rest in Peace

Save up a little longer and get a rad MS66 from PCGS/NGC/ANACS that can be a point of pride in your collection. This is one of the rare points when a grade that is often only for the well healed can be had by the common man on a budget. Hold out for something MUCH nicer!

The 1938-D was saved in bag quantity, and UNC rolls and bags were readily available well into the 1970s. The most common certified grade is MS-66, and they are available for pretty close to the same price. Hold out for a 66. They are readily available in the $40-ish-$50-ish range.

MS-64 at best with the carbon spots.
