I'd call it 63 or 64.

Happy Birthday...Ricko would love that one!

mommam17

very nice, I'll say a 65. I looked for years to find the right toned one for me.

Glad you like it. I never much cared for the design, but new coins always fun.

A bit of dipping there....63?

SeattleSlammer

Congrats. Yes, dipped, but that's one of the commems to own for sure.

DRUNNER

65.

I'm in the dipped MS63 camp too, but feel your images aren't doing it justice?

Mark

I agree with Broadstruck re "dipped" and "perhaps images not doing the coin justice?" But I'll go a bit higher than his grade and guess MS 64. I've always liked the design, so congratulations on a nice coin!!

And, oh yeah: Nice present. I bet you don't return it.

I'm a terrible picture taker....especially in slabs....pics taken with my cheap-o digital microscope.... I will reveal the grade a little later this evening....

MS 64, and a great coin to own.

genuine, cleaned

From those pictures, the PCGS grade is anybody's guess. I will shoot for 64.

LotsoLuck

Yeah maybe the pics but it looks dippy. I'll wag at 64 as well.

HoledandCreative

66

messydesk

Put me in the 63 camp as well.

I hate to say it, because I am sure the op was excited to get it, but have to say:

I read the title and it said eye candy and I was expecting to see a wow coin, and frankly was let down by the pic, sorry

TopographicOceans

A shiny 63

Happy Birthday and congrats on finding an Old Spanish Trail for your set. I am still looking for the right one for my set.

kaz

Happy Birthday and congrats on acquiring the coin you wanted (and I agree the pics probably don't do it justice!).

ricko

Very nice coin (yes, ricko does like it).... pictures are not so good... (better than I could do), so maybe not dipped.....Cheers, RickO

I suspect the picture has done more to undermine this coin than anything that could possibly be written.

This is exactly why I rarely have posted pictures.

edited to add- I also suspect it is attractive in hand
