        MS64 ... Not enough flash in the luster combined with an average strike on obverse will not merit a 65 imo. Is it raw?

        Loki, yes it is raw but I put it in a capitol holder right away. It does have excellent luster in person. mike

        I think it has a shot at a 65 grade. It looks very clean.

        Other then a tad of activity in the field to the rear of the neck as i am seeing it on my end, This is a nice Piece of GOLD.
        MS65 is it has more luster then what is showing other wise MS64

        With the usual disclaimer, the coin has nice luster and great color...too many field hits to go MS65. Its a great coin that should go 64.

        Experience the World through Numismatics...it's more than you can imagine.

        KlectorKid, sorry but I can't reveal my sources or there would be no coins left for meimage.
          dan1ecu, it's not certified but I am thinking ms64. I have been waiting until I get five gold coins before I submit them but maybe I will send this one in sooner. mike

          good idea, for interest sake would you post the resulting grade when you get it back to this thread, makes interesting lessons for all.....
          Good Luck image

          What did you consider it to be when you purchased it? or what was it advertised as?
