I have NEVER started a 'guess the grade' thread, but this is one I've been after for quite some time. Picked this up on the REAL cheap, I mean cheap! For all you Washie people, or anyone in general, care to take a stab at the grade on a coin that wond up costing me $33, and free shipping? It's going to our hosts tomorrow to get put in it's proper holder (it's PCGS already, but needs reholdering). DON'T CHEAT and look at the 'properties', too tired to change the title of the image........give me the grade you see from looking at the coin!!!

Can't wait to get this back!


edited...the 'mark' on George's hairline is just a lighting issue, the coin is all white.
I'll come up with something.

    Its hard to tell what's on the coin and what's on the holder, but the coin looks gem. The reverse looks strong. I'll guess P65.

    A lot of slide marks on the neck, or what can be perceived as such and some scattered marks in the fields and on the eagle. Looks like a 4.

    I'd guess MS65 too... are they worth spending over $50 to get them reholdered with the Type B designation?? I've seen some of them of other dates sell pretty cheap, even attributed that why I ask.

    Anyways, a cool find for $33 i think. image

    I see a 64, looks like marks on the face and neck. On the reverse I find it hard to tell what is on the coin and what is on the holder.

    DING DING DING!!! A winner already! Brings the total pop of MS66 Type B's, to just 3 (top-pop). Been a long while since the first 2 were made. This coin, attributed in MS66, is WELL worth the reholdering/attribution. For the $33.....

    In MS66, this is more than well worth the $$.....MS65's, you are borderline as to submitting, but MS66, well, it's one of the very hardest dates of the silver Type B's in MS66....could be the second hardest to find, but it's in the top 2 in rarity in MS66 attributed. Judging by the '56 and '58 MS66's prices (both top pops, both dates with more graded in MS66 than the '61), this is a great score, if I do say so myself!
    I'll come up with something.

    I'm assuming that was a fine cherrypick there. Gotta watch for the type reverses

    Wow I like it alot, and congrats on the search and finding such a nice example. Searching for all these varieties can be alot of fun finding one in MS66 is a tough deal. Hey maybe it gets a + too? Enjoy tom image

    Still a funny guy, Bochi!!! image

    I won't go near any of these Type B's unless they are 66's, and in our hosts plastic, noow (or, if it's a stellar raw coin,or a definite upgrade candidate), but getting a '59 or '62 in MS67, or a '64 in 66, those are going to be tough to find to get the highest graded Type B set. I just don't believe that MS64's and under will bring much of a premium, but the 66's, different story). It's weird, the coin is in a new, pronged holder (already scratched up, and does make it look worse than a 66), and the submitter didn't even catch the variety. Thanks for the props.......

    Tom, a plus would be great, and it stands a chance.
    I'll come up with something.

    That is a real nice looker and a TOP POP Type-B Reverse too. Wow a diamond in the ruff. And now a pop three coin. I would say you got the Deal of the Day on that one. But there is one more out there that is not attributed and it is also a Doubled Die Obverse #8. Check it out!!
    If my pictures do not post or if they are to large then pardon me. This is my first post here.
