    From the photos, a spectacular coin. MS 66 DMPL is my guess but I am notoriously incompetent at grading.

    Uncirculated. Message to Heritage: Your photos suck.

    Insufficient scans upon which to base an intelligent opinion. Sorry.
    When in doubt, don't.

    Could be almost any uncirculated grade based on that crap photo. The lighting is such that marks can be hidden, or it could be accurate and there are few marks. The luster could be great, or marginal. My guess is MS65 because that is a common grade up for auction. I would not buy that coin based on that photo. Anyone who does is playing what I term "fuzzy picture roulette." There is less downside when buying a PCGS certified coin, however, there is still downside. It is such a common date, a person can easily find a nice one, often for a nice price.

    Wow, I wish I were in Bermuda!!!
    Listen. Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony.

    This looks like a picture from Heritage, they photograph DMPL'S like this now. Could be MS65-MS66 but the picture is to crap to tell.

    Does anyone know or dealt with Rareland before? They seem to sell some very high end rare coins on eBay. Good call Iceman

    I can't grade this. The image is too small and something (brightness? Whiteness correction?) seems way off.
