    Lucy:

    I am saddened to tell you that I consider that coin to be counterfeit. There is a mismatch between the old date on the coin and the young portrait on the obverse. image

    Looks like a Nice Original Classic Coin. image FS (Full Smile) Obverse and a FB Reverse. Completely Struck Up on the Obverse (From what can be seen) and reverse. Nice Color.

    I'll say MS67FSFB

    Getting close to the FB (Full Body) designation but still does not qualify for the FH designation as they are not shown yet. image

    And some people wonder why collectors will pay a premium for coins with desginations, a few more of these GEMs and I'll climb the ladder in the Mercury Registry set!image

    I don't see the slightest bit of rub. Looks uncirculated to me. Makes you wonder how something like this can remain in such pristine condition.

    It seems to be in excellent condition. The tarnish (toning) just gives it more character. I'm having trouble grading the reverse, though. Full vertical lines, but not a hint of crossbands. image
