Help with grading this nickel??

I just received this 1971 NoS Proof set in the mail and it exceeded my expectations. Just wonder what you all think it will grade at PCGS. I am submitting it in the morning with a 15 day turn around.

Thanks for your help.

    My guess would be PR68CA. If the frost is more complete on the reverse than the photo shows, it could go DCAM.

    Nice looking coin... I agree with Mark... I'll keep my fingers crossed for you!

    My first instinct was 67CAM or 68, depending on the reverse frost. Given the way PCGS grades the regular '71 proofs, I don't think it would CAM if it had a mintmark, but they may be a little softer on the no-S variety.

    Is that the one from this thread? If so, I have to say it's nicer than I expected it to be, too.
