66 is my first guess. 65+ is my second guess

Let's just say the lighting on the cheek is very different in the whole-slab shots compared to the original grading picture. Several scuffs hiding there.

I was thinking 66 just looking at the coin-only shot, but agree with 65 based on the whole-slab shot.

In the initial pics, the cheek is a monster. It's still not bad in the slab shots, but not a monster.

Seeing the slab shot I now see why they gave it a 65 and not a 66.

If this is a 65, then this would definitely green bean at CAC, it's that good of a 65

I'm sorry, but to those guessing AU58, it may be time for a bigger monitor or a trip to the eye doctor.

Good job and a nice grade.

I would like to buy all of their raw AU58 coins.

Slab shot looks like a different coin. Shows you how images can make a coin what it is not!

valente151 · January 24, 2015 6:49AM

here's where I think the problem is- on a photo as large as the initial photo, that clean cheek is just blasting you when you see the coin, and you're fooled, and don't realize how un-flashy the coin is for an 81-s. In hand, as the graders saw it, the first thing they would have notice was the overall look of the coin, which really holds it to the gem level, as the luster and flash are just not there for above a 65. Though the slab shot does give a bit more luster, its still not enough to get it above a 65. Granted, I am sharing these thoughts after seeing the grade, its always easier to justify the grade once you see it. But just my two cents, for what they are worth...

First pic looks 66, second pic shows the slight cheek chatter that knocked it down a point. Nice coin!
