    PR66, but that's just a guess, there's no way to accurately grade proofs from photos.

    It's possible, it's just that you'd need photos from multiple angles and lighting situations.

    Perhaps. I’ll have to try that with one of my proofs at some point, and then do a GTG here. I would bet that it would be better, but still not as good as having the coin in hand. We might be able to get it to the point where it’s similar to grading a MS coin with the amount of hairlines you see being similar to the amount of bag marks you see on a MS coin.

    Apparently, I had already sold this coin to a forum member and did not realize until I started looking for it so, I have no pictures other than the TV.

    I’m sure there’s something there holding it back besides the overall appearance which is dull in comparison to another similarly toned specimen in CoinFacts but again, I no longer have possession to confirm.
    But if you check CoinFacts you’ll see what I’m talking about. It’s a tad down the list.
