Before seeing the blow up pics, I was going to suggest 63-64 PL, after seeing the larger photos I would grade 62 PL at best. If I was shopping as you suggest, thats what I would call it. Personally I would pass as I prefer clean cheeks etc.

Nice pic really, gives it a cameo appearance.
I do think the blemish would be a deduction so I would go MS 63.
65 without the hit. But what do I know?

I sent it back in to NGC for re-grade and attribution on the label for a VAM-70 and they agreed again it was a MS-64 The blow up of the above picture is not much better but I would still say MS-63 and not sure about the PL designation |
