I was considering adding this to the Anacs certificate type set. What is your opinion of it? I'm not an expert on these by any stretch, but it seems original. What is you opinion as to the grade?

    I think for as cheap as these usually are, you can find a lot better. I believe I came across an example graded MS63/63 with an ANACS photo cert. and the cost was reasonable. I'll look for it again and shoot you a PM.

    Looks like a nice mid-grade example to me

    Nice circulated example. I think the grade is a little conservative...it might be a 35 (depends on the cheek wear). This date is actually pretty common and often available in XF-MS grades.

    Solid VF30 by current standards. I'd add it to your set if the price is reasonable.

    VF30 at the minimum. I would not give it an XF grade but VF35 is a possibility.

    It looks like a nice VF-30 to me, and it's date you don't see that often. It's not a date that have some collectors doing cartwheels, but it's unusual nevertheless.
