    That's a nice coin. Lacking FB, but otherwise, a nice strike on the obverse. I would guess 65?

    Nice! But I'd rather see a 23-D (or even a 30-d).

    6 1/2 million minted but pricey in MS. How'ed that middle ban get so weak? Who knows but I could see 65 also.

    Does not the 2 look odd to anyone?

    I think the base of the 2 may have taken a hit, but otherwise it looks fine. I'd give it MS64.

    I was thinking MS64 as well. Nice coin.

    Looks like a minor 'ding' on the base of the 2..... 63 seems a fair grade, though I initially thought 62. Cheers, RickO
