    Definitely a straight grade. MS64 or 65

    I would guess straight grade. But I wouldn’t quibble if a TGP wanted to detail it.

    I'd say straight grade.

    While those marks are heavy I would think with market grading that getting a straight grade would be a high percentage chance.

    I don't think it would straight grade. Scratched.

    If it was just the single one on the breast, straight grade, but add the one above it- kind of in an open area of visibility and I'd go with Scratched (or, Damaged).

    Pretty big hits for straight grade. But they are legitimately contact marks, so I say MS63.
    (Though I wouldn't buy it with marks like that.)

    In hand, they look more like hits (contact marks) rather then scratches.

    I've avoided submitting coins in the past, simply because I hate waiting stinkin' months to get the things back!!

    If this coin straight grades it just magnifies the problem

    It's a shame. I know. Believe me.
    I hunted down the elusive "Ring of Death" 1976 ddo Quarter.
    However, in saying that...
    It's that ole saying, "if you like the coin, whatever condition,keep it"
    I like my damaged coin so much, I still sent mine in for grading!
    To answer your question.
    70%- Damaged
    30%- Straight grade
    Good Luck in whatever you decide.
    Still an awesome variety!
