A couple got it right. It is MS65bn. It has a lot of red for a BN coin. Barely a mark on the coin. Seems nicer than 65 to me. Most of the marks visible are on the slab not the coin. The colors really pop from certain angles.
I am going to keep it in the rattler. I figure it still holds a nice premium in that.
If I do choose to try to get a higher grade, would cracking and submitting or sending in for a regrade be the better way with a ms66 min grade? I am thinking the regrade is the better that way at worst it stays the same.
Thanks,
Richard

An attractive coin.
I'll go with 65RB.
At the risk of insulting you I will go with my first thought and say 63RB.
Nice coin whatever the holder says.

The reverse is quite attractive.
I'll go 64RB to cover all the bases.

I'll say 63 RB.

I don't like that mark across the jaw and neck.
I'll say 63 RB.

Very cool coin by the way...

Dude has 1600+ listings, not all coins. Holy Crap! 1600+ eBay Listings:
Nah, More like I buy what I like and hope for a good price. Don't really want to sell but the right price would take it. I have wanted one this nice for many years. And I always figure the more people who go in to my ebay store, the more that come across my art. That's why I also have a ton of car books up as well.
On this one I would say it is far from red but close to rb and has a real good shot at 66. So, I shot for close to the 66 price until I either do an upgrade or get it CACed.

You are asking for more than PCGS MS66 RB coins are selling for at Heritage. This is not 66 or RB, so I have to agree with Lance.
Upon further review of the super closeups on eBay, I would still give it a 65 with a shot at 66. Nice coin and I wish you success!
If it had a gold sticker it would do much better. Same for a new holder with a 66 grade and maybe a color upgrade.
No harm in giving eBay a shot. You might get lucky!
