I am one of those people who already know the grade. I don't want to spoil it, so I'll just say that I think it is accurately graded.

I know the grade too, brother. Let me say this. Because of the surface, it looks like an early strike. It looks great!

well fellas,

its a 64 brown. in person i think it rivals what i have seen in a pcgs holder in a 65 r/b. i speak for ones i have seen in person only.

i hope it upgrades. i think at the other grading. co. its got a shot at a 66br.

thanks for the posts and i will let everyone know when i resub it. if i do.

depending on luster viewed in hand, it is a 64 or 65 .. but brown and not red brown.

hey doug,

i thought the rb might be pushing it, i think the luster is nice. some of the 65s ive seen couldnt hold a candle to this coin. in hand its pretty nice.

one thing you have to remember i have only held maybe 60 or so of the mattes. i have only owned 2 so so far. i have a third and fouth on the way though. i will have some more pics ups soon.
thanks for viewing.
