I know it's got some spots but I am not worried about those. Just the general strike and contact marks is the issue that bugging me. Oh, I put up a web page so I could get bigger images in hereimage This coin came right out of the mint set.

    It's got a shot at 65. The reverse is a little too marked up to be a shoe-in.

    Very nice!!

    No, I wouldn't. I'd have to say 64 on that one.

    It's always hard to tell from a photo, but it looks like there's a mess of small scratches on the reverse. The obv looks good, but is that a hit in the first "76" on the date?

    I just got a 76 Ike back from NGC today. 40% Silver which I, and a few others had a solid shot at 68. Came back MS67 image

    Yup, hit on the second "7" in 1776image Oh well, it will go into my un-graded business strike Ike collection.

    This also puts me in fear of the two 73-P I have one of which I had a photo of up here. It just ain't in the cards for me I guess...LOL!!
