A recent purchase that was straight graded by PCGS. The dark thin lines are on the holder.

Hard to tell inside that holder.

Strike looks very nice...
The disturbances in the open fields are hard to discern from the pics...
Aside from the fingerprint on the obverse and if there is some luster...
AU-58/MS62
Waiting for the reveal

pretty much impossible to determine what marks are on the holder and which ones are on the coin. the fingerprint would not affect grade however it would affect value. it appears to have a nice color.

if all those marks/scratches are on the holder MS65 otherwise MS63

Well done IGE and E&V. smat45: I would have been in your corner if I did not have the coin in hand. Thank you everyone for taking the time to guess and comment.
