tights24 Pillar of the Community United States 2254 Posts	Posted 01/28/2009 08:34 am I moved this over to the grading section to get a little more exposure for you. Hope you don't mind. The pictures are actually making it pretty tough to determine a semi-accurate grade. If you can get straight on with the coin and reduce reflections, that would help. Currently, a lot can be hiding that we can't see. having said that, this looks like a solid MS63 with lots of room to go higher with better pics. The reverse is fantastic with the exception of what may be on the chest. The fields look exceptionally clean. The obverse cheek area is a focal point for grading, so we will definitely need better pics. Looks pretty clean, but a lot can be hiding. Also keep in mind, cameras hide nothing, so a coin in hand can look much better than it's photo per se. Report this Post to the Staff

I agree with my fellow Mod - MS63 is almost certain, and 64 likely. Report this Post to the Staff
