That is a gorgeous coin...but not sure what I think about the rim issues. Ah screw it.

I'm at 66, due to what looks like flat luster, a couple of light, splotchy areas on the obverse and the reverse scratches to the right of the second A in AMERICA.

@Mfeld copied my post all while somehow finding a way to post before me…. Impressive.
Nice 66 type coin

Lovely coin! I just love that clean cheek look.
Mr. Feldini may be right ... but she sure looks like a 67 to me.

Nice coin. Interesting that between the 79-S, 80-S, and 81-S they represent around 30% of the 66 and 67 population of the entire series. Somebody was mint employee of the year a few times.
Let me first say, Nice Coin
My guess, 66+
67.

If this was literally any other date I'd say 66+ but PCGS hates these 81-S's for some reason. I'll say PCGS called it a 6.

Very nice coin.
The abrasion above the star after America may have held it back from a higher grade. The obverse is very clean.

I'll post the TV with the grade later this evening. For now, what I will share is that anyone who guessed 66 or less did not GTG accurately. Also, TV's really sometimes call things out that essentially aren't there in hand.
TV updated in original post. This coin was graded MS68 (congrats @lermish!). Only 2 coins graded a full point higher (also pop 23 at 68+). Took a quick video in regular normal everyday lighting to demonstrate what it looks like in hand: https://streamable.com/b5bowh
When you compare similar looking TV's in successive grades, you can see the grading progression accordingly:
MS66+ (not my coin):
MS67 (not my coin):
MS68 (my coin):
Thanks! So should I DM you my address so you can ship me the coin? That's how this works right? Now I get the coin?

I think it’s like when you guess how many jelly beans are in the jar. You get the prize AND the jelly beans. So in addition to this coin you should also be getting a prize.
