The coin is in a PCGS slab and is graded MS66 - To me does not look like a MS66 what you think??

Too tough to grade anything from those images, but it looks alright to me. It looks pretty clean as far as contact marks on both sides.
Clearly, you have not consumed enough Kool-Aid.
(please consume vast amounts of Kool-Aid and then post better pictures)
I keep trying to upload high resolutions pics - but I can't

I am....is that bad
In general, I would strongly advise against buying coins sight-unseen. The coin in question might look better or worse in person than it does in the images, but it is unimpressive looking for a 66 based on what I can see.
Heres how to get nice big pictures up on these illustrious forums, so the Geenius Squad can pick them apart....
log onto www.photobucket.com
set up a free account.
once youve done that, you can upload images direct from any picture file on your Komputter.
Youll see the image on the photobucket site after you upload it, there will be a series of Boxes underneath, with urls...
copy the bottom url and after you have composed your message on these learned forums, paste the url.
as if by magic, your image will appear with your post.
But no real bad dings or dangs.
Not my series or cup of tea, but it looks to be well-struck.
My 1924 in an OGH is only a 63.......not as nice, but it makes me wonder if I should re-submit.

So let me just add my

<< <i>I am thinking to make a offer based on MS64 value >>
That is a bad idea. Even if you and others don't like the looks of it, many other people will pay MS66 money for it, some of them on a sight unseen basis. It will be insulting to the owner and probably harm your relationship. Wait for one that you do like - there are many, many to choose from, as they are not rare.
<< <i>If I had a coin in a 66 holder and you offered me 64 money, the only way I'd take it is if I bought it for MS 62 money. Just think, he might accept. >>
You might sell it for 64 money, even though there are sight unseen bidders at 66 money?
the OP coin...well.....dosent present that look.
.....go to him, if you are looking for a PQ Saint.

Mark, some day you might understand the sarcasm, but until we meet you're just going to have to keep wondering about me

I suspected that was the case, but seeing as how the OP had just said "I am thinking to make a offer based on MS64 value" I thought it would be better to try to clarify things for him.
I should be a little more responsible with my posts, but assumed Mat1 might understand the "sarcasm".
