In Celebration of my 1000th Post: New Pickup 1926 Peace Dollar GTG **GRADE REVEALED**

[grade revealed in my comment in thread]
One coin closer to completing my date set (still looking for the right ‘24 & ‘35).
Anyway, take a guess at the grade on this ‘26. Comments also welcome (not that I have to tell this crew )

@P0CKETCHANGE... Congratulations on 1000 posts. I would say 66, unless those marks on the neck are more prominent in hand.... Then a 65. Cheers, RickO
My first impression was 65

Frosty, with a wonderful clean cheek. Not a good grader when it comes to these, but 5 shot 6 seems the right range. Maybe even a +

Grade revealed below
The guessing coalesced at 65, which is the grade that PCGS assigned—nice work folks! I always try to buy examples with the eye appeal of higher grades, which the higher guesses supported. Here’s the distribution (if someone guessed multiple grades, I took the lower):
And here’s the slab shots from my iPhone. Personally I like it better than a 65, although I’m biased. I may try for a + grade upgrade the next time I’m sending a batch to our hosts. In either case will go to CAC at some point.
