Try your hand at this one. Apologies for the reverse, the light scratches are on the holder and were hard to eliminate completely using lighting. Image is unretouched.

I would say 66 but I wouldn't be surprised by a 65.

Looks like a 64. Of course, a yellowed ring usually implies an OGH, and GTG usually implies a trick question. Perhaps it's also graded PL, since they were generous with that designation back then.

MS65 seems about right.
I like it at 64.

65 if not for what looks like slide marks on the cheek. I'll go 64

The obverse look 65 while the reverse says 64 to me, so 64+, but 65 would not surprise... Thanks for posting!
64, but 65 would not surprise me.

So @messydesk caught me, this is a tricky one. FWIW, I think the same as most of you, 64-65 would be a fair grade. Maybe worth a reconsideration attempt?

Reconsideration you'll have to pay the reconsideration tax. I'd probably bust it out and grade it raw.

Gambling on getting a gold sticker might be a cheaper way to realize its current market value.
Undergraded, I think.
Was going to say 64 but I'd say it's a tossup. Hard to see the chatter on the cheek from the pictures.

The step up in value would be worth submitting for the upgrade. Cheers, RickO
