Picked this one up for my type set. What do you think the grade is?

Glad I can finally see some better pics of this coin. The seller's photos made it look like it had a beautiful purple color. Still a nice coin though, I'd say it looks better struck than the seller's pics, but the toning doesn't look as nice as I thought it would be (assuming that your pics show the color more accurate than the seller's pics).

64. Looks like a nice coin. Your pics look yellow, are they or is that the true color?

my mothers birth year.....she would be impressed

lasvegasteddy · July 21, 2015 4:21PM

that's gorgeous
<<<66 crowd for me too

lordmarcovan · July 21, 2015 5:00PM

Nice. I'd guess 65, no FH.

MS65.....Cheers, RickO

MS65. It appears to have nice color. Hopefully it is an accurate image. Nice strike just about everywhere except the head.

Beautiful coin. Hate grading SLQ's from images.
Looks Gem MS ( 65+) ... Obviously, not a FH.
One of the more colorfully toned ones I have seen.

savoyspecial · July 21, 2015 10:57PM

65 and I'm not so quick to dismiss the possibility of FH (there is some unfortunate glare from lighting in that area but it looks well struck)

I agree. Nice coin. It's too bad it isn't a full head.

Very clean Gem

65/66 nice shield!

bolivarshagnasty · July 22, 2015 12:40AM

66 no FH

panexpoguy · July 22, 2015 12:43AM

66, and a beautiful coin!

65+

ms70 · July 22, 2015 1:16AM

66, no FH. That's really a beauty.

MS64

Nice color but that might be the flattest head I've ever seen on a 19-P as this date is one of the easiest SLQ's found struck like a moose.

ksuscott · July 22, 2015 12:29PM

The pictures are fairly accurate. The blue runs across the top of the obverse from one side to the other. My pictures show a little more of a yellow hue due to my lighting (I'm definitely a novice when it comes to photography). Nice detail in the shield, but definitely not a full head. The reverse has a tinge of gold next to the rim around the entire circumference with a faint blue and the dark brown which really sets off the eagle in my opinion. The coin is currently graded as MS64 in an older holder. My first thought was that it might be under graded. I may send it to PCGS in the near future to see if it would upgrade. I appreciate all of the feedback. Happy collecting!

Shamika · July 22, 2015 12:36PM

I thought it looked 65ish.

roadrunner · July 22, 2015 1:22PM

I would have agreed with the NGC 66.....and if attempted....PCGS MS65. Who knows what PCGS will do what that color. They just might refuse to cross it at any grade. I like it. But I don't count.

CoinJunkie · July 22, 2015 1:43PM

I could see that coin in a 65 holder, but it's not a lock.

I am with savoyspecial on his thoughts. The coin looks well struck in other areas. Better pics would help. Maybe a close-up of the head area? Nice coin ksuscott. Congrats.

Wabbit2313 · July 22, 2015 2:08PM

What old holder? PCI by the looks of the toning? Do you have a full pic showing the reverse slab also?
