I'll say MS-65. A few hits on the cheek but overall pretty clean. Nice looking coin.

Nice example. I could see MS64+, possibly MS65. Our Pareidolia friends will see an upside-down T on the (lower right) jaw line.

Kind of flat-looking here. Solid 65 or better sharpness. but I'd like to see more cartwheel.

Looking at the photos, a couple of deep cuts on the cheek. Not impressed by the strike. And the luster is not there. MS63

I'll say a solid MS-63. Cheek has too many scuffs and gouges, and Obv. rim has a few hits as well right above the E.
Rest in Peace

I wouldn't pay more than MS63 money for it, especially in today's market.

strike typical for the year. just average. luster is there but not a standout. overall eye appeal is nice. A few marks here and there but nothing major. I think she falls between MS63 and MS64. I'm closer to 63

Not sure how you can give it higher than a 63 with the contact marks on obverse.

MS-63, clean fields but hits in the key focal areas.

Thanks everyone. I picked it up for a good bit less than NumisMedia MS63 FMV. Hoping it has a great luster in person when it gets here.

I got this one in the mail today. There are definitely some hairline bag marks/scrapes that only show up under certain angles of light. You can't really see them in the pictures. It definitely has more luster than the photos though. I would probably give this one a MS-62

Dipped maybe? The luster is broken on the cheek.

Absent better photos, I can't go higher than AU.
