    MS-65
    Too many extended arm hits

    MS65 but lighting is no good… so a shot in the dark (pun intended)

    Looks to be a very nice coin. I'm going to guess a 66. Looks pretty clean. I also see the arm hits but aside from that I only see some abrasion near the T in Liberty.
    The images do make it difficult.

    Is this enough damage to give it a details grade?

    If so, it's another example of a TPG being a nanny, rather than telling us how worn a coin is.

    It shouldn’t be.

    Nice strike, scattered hits, and maybe a scuff or abrasion on the sun, I’ll go with 64.

    You do realize the grades were posted several posts back, right?

    I am a newer collector (started April 2020), and I primarily focus on U.S. Half Cents and Type Coins. Early copper is my favorite.
