My first and only Classic Commemorative, an Oregon Trail - grade posted

I never really cared much about the commemoratives before joining here, and have fallen in love with several of the designs that I've seen posted here, this one being one of them. Sorry that my pic quality can't match many that are posted here, I've got issues image Guess the grade if you can from the pics, and I'll reveal what the experts say in a little while image

  • I love the coin. Here's mine in a PCGS MS66. Yours looks nicer...

  • You can't go wrong with an Oregon that looks like that!

    Is it within the rules to guess Superb Gem? image

    Sorry for the blurry pic, hard to hold the camera steady with a three-year-old on your shoulders image

    If that coin is truely a 64 and in that plastic then those pictures MUST be hiding something. If the coin really does look like the pic then send that puppy to PCGS with a quickness.

    Mine is a PCGS 66 and yours looks way better than mine. I would crack that one out
    and send to PCGS.

    Don't be so too sure of the coin upgrading. I cracked a very low mintage 1928 Oregon Trail out of an old green PCI MS65 slab and it came back MS64.
