Two new 1946 Half Dollar TrueViews - Care to guess the grades? - UPDATED

Obviously you could also look up the certificate numbers when they post, but where's the fun in that?

This first one I picked up raw from the local B&M. (Link to Extra Large image)

This one came out of an old ANACS holder, I wanted to stop the toning from going any farther and get the TrueView. (Link to Extra Large image)

Update:
I wasn't surprised that the BTW came back as cleaned, I'd had some concerns about the spotty toning although I'm not sure I agree with their evaluation of AU details; regardless doesn't really matter in a Genuine holder anyway.

The Walker was in a small ANACS MS64 holder and came back in a PCGS MS64 holder. I thought it would have a shot at 65 given the incredible luster on the coin; but is probably accurately graded as a 64.

    I think both could 65

    Weird looking eyes on BTW. Cool though.

    AU+
    MS64/5

    Too many positive BST transactions with too many members to list.

    To answer your question, I don't have to wait for the grades and if I did, I would have forgotten to look back for it(the answer).
    In spite of the grade given by PCGS, that BTW is a beautiful coin.
