Its hard with the glare, but I would give it MS 60 but it may have been cleaned.

This is the grade I would have given it if I were bidding on it per this photos on Heritage Auctions.

Here's a picture taken from a QX. I can't get a full picture other than from a regular camera.

Yes, I've been looking at his auctions for a while. I even posted on the ebay discussion section about the seller as I had doubts before.

Nicely struck. Good eye appeal. Don't see many problems in the focal areas. Doesn't look circulated. The rim looks a little off at the bottom of the reverse but that shouldn't affect it too much. I would give it a MS-63 at least. Is a very nice looking coin.

4 diamonds but not strong. This is the best I can for now as far as the pictures goes.

This is the picture I managed to take, the color is not accurate in the picture, the color on the dealer pic is accurate. But it clearly show two hits on the cheek, how do you think it'll effect the grade?

With the 2 marks this should grade MS60. Very nice coin. Very well struck.

I decided to return it. Clearly the hits are not there in his picture, maybe its a photoshop job.
