Must have been an awful tough day at the office those many years ago when the finalizer gave that coin a 64. Beautiful look - I don't claim to know how to grade commem gold but I would think 66 would not be out of the question today. Thanks for posting.

Guess I never noticed the side profile of Grant but he resembles a toy I use to have when a kid......”rock em sock em robots.”Or maybe a little Fred Flinstone with that slate jaw. I’m a huge fan/collector of US currency and the $50 dollar bill.....like the Grant!

Very late to the game. I would have guessed 65, shot 66 as it appears hammered with very few marks. What a great example! WTG!!
