So top graded coin atm is a ms64 This cloudy example is kinda ugly but still DMPL I can hardly see any marks. Taking pics is a challenge.Im struggling to asses this coin myself The only thing is visible on the last pic?, could it be die polish, cleaning? Notice that it only is on the neck. The 1946 krona is not a rare coin. You can find them cheap. But maybe rare in dmpl idk. I got this as part of a group       Edited by Moniker 06/09/2024 1:51 pm

Yeah I don't like it either. Still the cloudiness is toning and wouldnt affect technical grade.

I just feel like I want to get the silver polish out.  Nice coin though Moniker.

Same here want to sandblast it. But still I think it might have a high technical grade. These mirrory surfaces appereance get uglier than matte frosty ones. It is graded 0 by the old coinshop it was bought from long ago 2 clean ones

Looks MS-63 to me, maybe on a real good day 64.

The toning is awfull, I skip grading this then I have five other pl looking that might be better. The toning makes it hard to see the surface, thank you Eagle

The hairlines are a killer on this one.

Is it not from dies? Diepolishing. It doesn't go out even one mm on the fields outside neck

UNC details harshly cleaned (acetone does not fix hairlines)
