Good morning, I have just bought this coin. According to the seller it is a prooflike coin. Actually, I'm not sure about that. This is my first CC coin. As you see, it has two small dots on it. How would you grade it? Let me try, though. MS-63. Do you agree? Thank you.

Pictures aren't the best, but I'll say MS-63.
Errers and Varietys.

Can't be a proof, Carson City did not produce any proofs. Pictures are not really sharp enough to give a grade but it would be in the mid MS range.

Unable to grade from these photos.

Maybe this would help this person; they need to learn how to edit their pictures before posting them... From the OP's washed-out pictures, I came up with this..

Still hard to assess the surfaces from the photos, but MS-63 might be about right. There are some prooflike coins from Carson City, but can't really tell from these pics.

Keith67 & IndianGoldEagle, thank you...  This coin has a dark haze around the face, indicating it was cleaned at some point... . . . . I give this coin an MS64 Details Cleaned, but it looks like it still shows some luster.

CFM, looks like it's still in a GSA holder so it is right from Mint sewn bags and not cleaned. Maybe afornaini can verify it's in the GSA plastic.

IndianGoldEagle, Thank you, brother. I overlooked that (black GSA background holder ), but still don't like those dark areas, could be a reflection of the holder, maybe?

Coin is its GSA holder, I confirm that. Thank you CFM! How did you do that? With your enhancement the coin seems the one I have in the holder. Better colors, for sure, compared to my pictures

most GSA come in at MS63. a little too much glare to put her higher as its impossible to determine the amount of luster and any other minor surface issues
