This is my tenth coin in the quest (selected date run of Saints in PCGS MS63). This coin is from APMEX. They normally have stock photos of coins that they have in bulk. I saw this single listing with the magical words..."this is the coin you will receive." I called to confirm and here it is.

    Based only on that photo, eye appeal is nice for a 63.

    I've been sifting through a lot of -63's. I find a lot with distracting marks in the field, copper spots, black spots, stacking rub, etc.... I'm trying to build a "problem-free" -63 set.

    On these big gold coins MS63 is a grade that can be down-right ugly or on the verge of greatness. I find the early years have a nice orange satiny skin and the later years are very brilliant, two different types as it were.
