Is this what you would expect in an MS-67?

OK, I am not an experienced grader, and I was hoping for some input from more knowledgeable board members.

Doesn't this have too many cheek marks? I forgive that, but doesn't the brown spot on the reverse by oNe hurt.

Thanks in advance for your input.

    The obverse is right on the line between MS66 and 67.

    The reverse is MS68.

    MS67 seems like a fitting grade, IMO

    Low end 67,

    high end 66.

    I'd prefer one with less marks in the focal areas though.

    Looks like something that 20 years ago would be called a nice 65.

    I suspect that in the relatively near future there will be a consolidation of generously graded material. I think that the trend is already slanted in that direction.

    Another thing that confuses me is PCGS calling this a $1000 coin. I just don't get it.
