One of the prettiest brilliant proofs I've ever stumbled into. Opinions?   |

I've never graded a Proof coin, but I'm trying to learn how to grade them. With the angle used to take the image I almost cannot see much imperfection. Would you be willing to share pictures with your phone being parallel to the coin. I think that angle would give us more information to work with.

I'm thinking the obv toning eye appeal may hold this one to PF66 maybe a +. the lighting may be throwing it off

A nick on O (one), and MD on reverse. Probably will be 65+ to 66.
Yes those PR are nicer 's for that era, in fact 1956 till1959 are really nice. To find in 68 it is a challenge and almost for DCAM red.

Lovely coin indeed. The angle of your phone to the coin is throwing off the details, note how the legends at the top of the photos are quite out of focus.
That said, I don't see much if any surface imperfections. I'll hazard a guess at PR67 - although this is certainly not an area of expertise for me.
Take a look at my other hobby ... http://www.jk-dk.art |

I'll go with PR65. Beautiful toning. Stalks are nice. I have no clue grading proofs, but gave it a shot.
