Time for another Guess the Grade™ GRADE REVEALED

DJCoinz

What grade would you give it? I'll reveal the TPG's grade later on.

LeeBone

Put me in for a 65

braddick

I like it at (ANACS) MS66, but 65 is also good.

ziggy29

Waffling between 64 and 65, but went with 65 because of the common date and quality of the cheek. A date that's tougher in 65 probably gets stuck on 64.

[Edit to add: From this image, I can't tell at all whether or not the coin is PL.]

Steve27

MS64 due to the weak turkey feathers.

Tonedbuff

I went 65PL.
I'd grade 64 and maybe PL (need to see in hand) but I could see this in a 65pl holder...
It appears to have a nice cameo contrast, somewhat hidden beneath toning, but clearly there.

66

65 and i even added a PL.
but after my 2nd look i am not so sure about the PL anymore.

tjkillian

A nice MS-65. Commonly well-struck date.

bigmansam88

I went with 65 PL.

The coins doesn't have many contact marks and the mirrors are most likely hidden by the toning.

Extremely nice coin!

BECOKA

I went with 65 no PL, but after a second look that chatter on the obverse looks kinda deep. It could border 64 as well.

dizzyfoxx

I went with MS64. Does not look PL to me.

jdillane

Nice lookin 64

LeeBone

Who put the vote in for 67PL?

DJCoinz

Just added some more images...

ziggy29

Now that I more clearly see a scratch on the chin, I retract my 65 and replace it with 64.

Whatafind

I don't know , but iwould say 64.
But the reverse at the lower rim looks like PVC damage on my moniter. Deep green color.
CAn anyone see that?
I do like it.

Oh! ANACS !!!!!!!!

64. It's a 1880-s, these well struck, PL coins are the norm for the early S mint Morgans. They have to be knock outs to get the higher grades.

Trust me. This coin is a knock out.

Is this from your recent "old ANA holder hoard"?

i went 63 b4 the new pictures and i'll stick to it after

GoldenEyeNumismatics

66PL if you'd dip it first.

DJCoinz

<< <i>Is this from your recent "old ANA holder hoard"? >>

Perhaps...



Yes it is. IMO it has a very good chance of regrading at the 66PL level. My camera really picks up and magnifies the slightest disturbance...in hand you can see that the "hits" on the cheek actually aren't hits at all, just breaks in the frost (all except the one directly above the neck/jaw line. that is the only actual hit on the cheek). This one will be staying with me and probably going along with my next submission.

ElKevvo

I would be interested to see what this ends up after it is submitted...keep us posted!

as usual i should have stuck with my first gut instinct guess.
superb coin. unique holder.

DJCoinz

Thanks for the comments and I'll keep you posted as to what it gets.

Here are some more images that show off the mirrors better:

That's a nice one, and I got it right because I remembered looking at it before.

I see very nice contrast but I don't see mirrors.

Rollerman

Is it just me, or does that reverse toning almost look like it was liquid at one time? Guess I've not seen one exactly like that before.
Just wondering, it is a real nice coin.
