  Yes, I do although not my kind of coin. The year of Dark Side of the Moon as well - there were probably many rainbows on the moon in 1973

  I'll bet it looks even better in hand... it is so hard to capyure all the nuances of the pastels that form on these IKES.

  Very Nice Coin and a bit undergraded IMO.
  
  Why do TPG's feel the need to penalize toned IKE Proofs? I see no reason why this coin is a PR64.

  I decided to change calling the bathroom the John and renamed it the Jim. I feel so much better saying I went to the Jim this morning.

  I agree. I've seen worse Ikes in a 66. I'd give this one a 66 or a 67, unless the picture really is hiding something.

  Very pretty - but any comment about the grade of a proof coin off an image is just downright silly.

  Love it! Better than a 64 though.

  Have bought and sold on BST, many references available when asked.

  I doubt a TrueView would be taken which shows hairlines or thick haze which probably account for the grade.
