    Hmm. High MS luster, but with a few noticeable hits on the face of Liberty, and I can't tell if the reverse has full bands or not. The bands look mostly fully formed except for on the far left side.

    I will guess MS65FB.

    Could be MS-65FB.

    Too bad about Liberty's acne problem.

    It does have a FB designation.

    My logic was that the minor hits on Liberty's face would hold it to 65. It certainly looks 66 otherwise! Nice coin.

    Nice 66FB and does it have the FS-501 D/D?

    Dunno. Guess I’ll need to put a loupe to it next time it’s out of the SDB.

    Pretty coin for sure, but 66 grade is generous in my opinion.

    I guess I’ll join the chorus. I’m at 65 FB as well.

    Though if any of those contact marks really stand out in hand, I wouldn’t be terribly surprised to see it as 64 FB.

    I would never have guessed 66 FB with those marks on the cheek. I would have said 64 FB.

    Well... I would have got that one right... I thought the cheek marks minor and accentuated by lighting/brightness of the coin..... Nice dime LordM... Cheers, RickO
