This is a coin I still need for my collection of memorials from my selection and submissions to PCGS. Must grade at least ms-66 preferably higher. Hammer away and let me know why that won't happen? The reverse is the same color as the obverse. I changed the color for more detail.

Reverse marks hold this to 66RD.

I saw the same thing, in addition to IN GOD WE TRUST merging into the rim or is that even a problem? I find it fascinating that a person can look at this coin for 30 seconds and make that determination (on the grade I mean)

Rims badly scuffed, obv high point weakness, minor spots. Reverse: United has some deep hits, some fields hits, weakness in the bottom step.

65/66 at best

Here's mine, I had to sacrifice luster and the reverse spot for the strike, full steps and lack of hits.
