I know the pic makes it tough to see, but the bands are split.

    Is that a hit between the nose and "I"? If it is then it would influence my guess.

    Just a piece of surface debris (grease?) or something, it's sitting on top of the coin. >>

    Sweet! Since you also say it is FB then my guess will echo LM at 66+FB...but I would not be surprised to see a different grade. Nice coin!

    Looks like a 66fb to me. They could have deducted a point for the die polish front and back of miss liberty.

    The die polish on Mercs does not affect the grade on these coins.
