    Beautiful coin, cb. Love the color. I wouldn't see why a 65FH shouldn't
    be listed on a holder. Congrats and good luck.

    looks like a beautiful coin but do I see some cleaning on this coin ? my guess is Unc. details cleaned. I hope I'm wrong on this one.

    Looks MS 64 FH to me too.

    I'll jump on the 64 FH bandwagon, but 65 FH might not surprise me.

    She's a beauty.

    Looks FH but I don't see an "earhole"?

    Looks much better than a 64FH.

    The slab looks cleaned, sure. I don't see any signs of cleaning on the coin.

    I'm in the MS64FH (shot 65) camp.

    congrats on a sweet addition there
    this is one example to be proud of here

    to me
    luster is great and looks pretty much unscaved so ms65 should be a lock

    to go above ms65 is where frost comes into play
    i just don't see "frost" on top of luster to carry it higher but it could easily sit in a 66 holder

    full head is very hard to tell from image supplied here so i'm in reserve on that note

    thanks for sharing it's beauty with us and goodluck with the cross or raw crackout sub and please update us too

    Grades in 1st post. For the myriad of 64 guesses, just wondering what held it back from a 65 in your eyes? Looks like a solid 65 IMO.

    Strike is solid. Not many hits. Grade will be determined by luster, hairlines, and surface quality...... those things are all hard to evaluate from a photo.

    I see no reason it shouldn't be a 65, but I'd want to see it in-hand.

    For me, what held it back was the quality of the pictures. I tend to err on the side of slightly conservative when grading based on sub-par photos.

    It looks to be a very lovely and lustrous coin, and very nice surfaces and toning.

    Makes sense. The seller's photos are actually pretty good, photobucket reduces the image size and quality a good deal. I need to find another hosting service.

    Looks a bit bright or "odd" in the centers as if it were dipped in the past 10-25 years. Just not a big fan of that look.

    An ANACS 65 coin will generally sell for 64/64+ PCGS money.....until crossed.

    I've certainly seen P65's that look like this.

    I too fell for the look of the coin in the pictures provided. The picture of the coin in the ANACS slab looks like a completely different coin. In that picture the coin has obvious MS 65 "pop".

    Great looking coin and example of the type, great look of that peripheral toning, very attractive. Looking for one similar.

    Most Type I's are well struck and yours is no exception. Very nice SLQ! I like the rim toning. Not sure if it would garner a 65 from PCGS.

    This thing looks even better than I had expected. Nice rainbow progression rim toning with an underlying pinkish hue to it. Here are my crappy iphone pics, these are shown in order to display the colors more than anything else.

    I have no problem calling that a 65 FH.

    Nice coin, love the rim toning, especially.
