    Lets guess MS69. I don't think its a 70, or you wouldn't be asking.

    Should be MS69 but since your asking - Graded MS68?

    Impossible to tell from a photo. Also the edges come into play. Any marks there and it's not a 70.

    I would bet it's either 68/69/70

    68

    Inner rim not fully struck between the T in United and the first T in States.

    69 because of the inner rim problems above and below 'STATES' - indicates die wear (or problems) and a weaker strike precluding the 70 grade

    The old hag on the obverse and the hottie on the reverse CANNOT be the same chick. Can they?

    My grade would be an MS69 due to:

    Obverse
    1. the dark brown spot between A and B in the name
    2.The dings on the I in the name and the inner serif in the G of the name
    3. The frost break to the left of her hat
    4. The dark spot above the B in LIBERTY
    5. There appear to be some scrapes under AMS next to her head

    Reverse:
    1. At 11 o'clock, the inside rim has scarapes or is incomplete
    2. In the field above the secon M of REMEMBER there is a small dark spot.

    Edited to add: I did download the hi-res image for beter close-ups.

    I decided to change calling the bathroom the John and renamed it the Jim. I feel so much better saying I went to the Jim this morning.

    Looks like a perfect 70 to me....but, since there are those sixes in the cert #,
    prolly not?
