    If that's a scratch on the holder, or something else, I say 66.

    MS64... looks really close to FB though in the pic... is that a hit on the bands? Maybe that's what kept it from the FB designation...

    no, its not a hit, the little spot in the middle is connected, about 90% FB though.

    Looked pretty clean in your picture... lack of luster must have hindered the grade... unless there's hits hidden in there that can't be seen on the pics... I'm usually fairly good with technical grading of MS Mercs, but I'm still trying to get a handle on how much luster effects the grade... at least according to PCGS graders...

    Lucy you took the words outta my mouth - I was thinking the same- besides this merc to me was a 60-61 IMHO so I guess a MS-62 it RIGHTFULLY is. IN addition to that my friend is a suggestion to at least wait a number of hours if not most of the day to let others join in your thread, if you'd had done that I believe you would have had a much wider response and all.

    Nice addition though image
