HolyHackJack New Member United States 33 Posts	Posted 08/09/2023 2:41 pm I'd be thrilled if I could get a 68. I don't want to come off as the 'I know what I got guy' by claiming that I think it possible -- buuut I think it MAY be possible on this one. But I haven't been in the hobby but for a couple of years, so I'm always happy to be humbled into saving money by people that know what they're talking about. Report this Post to the Staff

nick10 Pillar of the Community United States 3207 Posts	Posted 08/09/2023 3:23 pm nice coin to be sure but 68 is rareified air, ticks on L of Libery, JFK's neck, the rim left of Half, decent shot at MS-67 IMO Report this Post to the Staff

panzaldi Bedrock of the Community United States 18654 Posts	Posted 08/10/2023 09:12 am the chance of a 68 is pretty much zero. grading any coin by photo above a 66 is crap shoot. every tiny little detail comes into play. based on your photos the rev looks 67 maybe a +. however the obv photo is not enough to assess it properly. the photo shows missing luster or possibly cabinet rub at the top of the head above the ear as well as some on the high point of the cheek and the bridge of the nose. is that there? cant tell for sure as lighting/glare can skew that. the field to left of the profile appears to be missing luster also or some type of scuffing or rub. I think you have an MS67 coin. which is quite nice i order to cover the cost of grading the coin would need to be 67+ or 68 Report this Post to the Staff
ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19142 Posts	Posted 08/10/2023 09:22 am Agree with all above. given the posted pics, I'm thinking MS66+. Would love to see the coin in-hand. Report this Post to the Staff
