This is a coin I don’t believe I’ve shown on these forums before so here is probably one of my nicest looking coins. Good luck!

Grade will be revealed after 25 guesses or 24 hours, whichever comes first!

    Nice coin! I’ll give it an MS 67+(?).

    Hard to tell from the images as I see some marks and scruff (?) on the portrait and in the obverse fields and maybe some slight luster issues ... so I'm going with 65.

    This series can be somewhat challenging to grade given the exposed cheek and forehead. The coin has excellent luster and is attractive. The problem I have in grading these is just handicapping the blemishes and arriving at a reasonable grade without being too harsh.

    I see 66 as reasonable as it looks better than most. My BTW set is complete and raw. I doubt I will submit them even though I am curious as to the grading outcome.

    Experience the World through Numismatics...it's more than you can imagine.

    I'll go 66+. For a BTW the cheek looks cleanerthan most. But I wonder about the haze (?) on the right obverse. It's hard to tell if that's haze or a reflection from perhaps some polishing lines or whatever...

    What, on earth, are you seeing that would knock the coin down below a 65? And then, even a 64?
