With current pictures, I'll say MS-64.
Errers and Varietys.

A sharp example. MS65RD seems about right, maybe MS66RD because I feel the frog has a good eye for them.  |

Thank you, guys for looking and giving me your expert opinions. I am so clueless when it comes to grading. This was from a Loomis bank roll, so not bad for where I found it, but have since looked for what something like this would be worth and definitely not something I should slab. I found several that were slabbed, in MS66-67 that sold for 15 or 20 bucks at most. Just a cardboard 2x2 for this guy.  -makecents-

I'm at MS66RD also. definitely not worth grading this link may help with sending coins in https://www.coincommunity.com/colle...t-graded.aspgrading costs are ridiculous and not worth it unless you have a rare coin that needs authenticated and preserved OR the coin has sufficient value that the grading costs do not chew up the value of the coin. for PCGS your talking $69 subscription fee, $23 grading fee, plus shipping and ins both ways. its just adding to those companies bottom line. don't get sucked into the grading maelstrom i would get a bunch of airtite's online instead of 2x2's they protect the coin better Edited by panzaldi

Thanks, everyone! I appreciate the input and links too. Yeah, I have a long way to go on getting a better beat on grades. It didn't take me long to figure out this one was not worth slabbing though, a couple points low. Thanks again, all! -makecents-
