    IMO...MS64 maybe MS65 non-FS. Nice fully struck example, but not quite full step. NGc may FS it, but PCGS wouldn't.

    I see it as a solid 64, it's just a darn shame, that nick near the first piller

    64+ either FS or durn close to it?

    need a pic from another angle?

    Nice coin - nice strike and terrific detail

    This is the poster coin for why the full steps designation is very close to being meaningless

    Experience the World through Numismatics...it's more than you can imagine.

    64 no FS Great strike. I like the reverse of that coin.

    63 with a shot at 58 or 61, depending on the mood of the day.

    But I'm usually a point low from pictures to the real thing.

    MS63.

    this is a date in the series which is fairly easy to find with well struck step detail and an overall PL appearance. unfortunately, the planchets were in pretty bad shape and tend to show the multitude of unstruck flaws which are evident on this coin. in an average unsearched roll you should be able to find coins such as this.
