    the marks in the field are just that. marks. not graffiti.

    as for the grade it seems reasonable. just marked up a lot on the
    obv. rev is pretty darn nice.

    look at the slab shots to see the nice luster.

    i don't know if the grade is appropriate, I have some common date 62s and they aren't quite as marked up as the obverse as this one though. Not only the marks in the field, but all over Liberty herself. Look like someone gave her a whippin

    to me it almost looks like Zorro was here,
    the rest of the coin looks quite nice but
    I'm also interested in what our forum "devil" has to say

    62, but that's based on the pics. I don't have it in hand and I'm nowhere near as qualified and experienced as the guys that gave it a 63.
