Here’s the reveal, they gave it a 66. Most people got it dead on or close

For fun, I submitted some raw toned coins I had lying around at the last Long Beach show because I had some vouchers that were about to expire. Here’s one of them, guess the grade please.
Here’s the TrueView images

And here are some Spudview images I made when I first purchased the coin about 20 years ago.

The toning hasn’t changed since I bought it. I had it in a airtite capsule in a jar with desiccant.

    I would say 66. Looks like there are some marks on the cheek that would prevent it going higher.

    I'm guessing MS66, I was also wondering about the color given the recent TV photo issues. While these look better than many posted recently it is clear from your comment on which photos best represent the coin that the TV's are still suffering from some overexposure or color tint issues.

    It probably only looks better than most posted recently because the coin is already toned a warm color, and therefore the yellow tint is not as noticeable.

    66+..... I have a 1958 toner in an ANACS soapbox that is 67 from ANACS. I am thinking of crossing it....I am curious to see if you made 67.

    I agree with Bluejay, but I’ll cover 64.

    My initial reaction is MS66, but truly it has the classic look of MS66 or MS67 at PCGS. The difference between the assignment of grades, in my experience, has to do with luster and the apparent luster on this coin is more muted than I typically see on MS67. Please note I am ignoring the + grade options.

    Everybody was either right or close, they gave it a 66. In all honesty, the Trueview captured the luster better and my 20 year old Spudview captured the color better. If I remember correctly, this pic was taken with one of those old Nikon’s with the square swivel lenses that Russ used to tell everybody about. You could pick them up used on eBay for about $50 or so. I can tell I used multiple lights with a Reveal incandescent light as part of the lighting. I can tell that by the exaggerated blue on the rims. When I get coin back from PCGS, I might try tweaking the Trueview tint a bit redder to match the coin in-hand colors and it should be pretty accurate. I’m going to put the grade reveal in the original post so people don’t have to go digging down here if they don’t want to read more
