    Not my area of expertise at all, but I'll throw a guess of 63 out there!

    I sent in 2 similar which graded MS 65 and MS 66, so a high grade wouldn't surprise me, in comparison

    Looks like a 64 from your pics.

    I'd say MS-63+ with a shot at MS-64. It has too many marks to be a "real" MS-65.

    This one is very conservatively graded as an MS-64. I think that it has a shot at MS-65.

    I don't know much about grading gold, but I do know that I see plenty of marks on MS 63 and 64 coins, especially the higher denom coins..... not many marks on this one at all. However, the luster appears muted or missing, so I'll guess 63+, but potentially higher if the luster is really there.

    I don't see a 63....I see a bold 64....What the heck is going on with these graders?

    If submitted, I think it's a 64 on a bad day, 65 on a good day. Nice coin in person!!
