So I found this little beauty at my local coin show yesterday. Adding this to my type collection. Opinions and your thoughts on the grade.

    From the images provided the luster looks pristine (unmolested). If so, that counts for a lot in my book, regardless of the grade.

    Nice mark free surfaces and a mostly full clean strike sure don't hurt either.

    Congratulations!

    So I tried to guess the mintmark from just the obverse pic and was wrong. Could be the pics but for an S coin, there isn’t the right amount of rolling luster I’d expect. So despite the apparent very clean surfaces, I’m going with 64.

    Very nice!
    I’d prefer a little tone, but can also appreciate it the way it is too!

    Like Walkerguy, I like them with just a bit of toning and dirt, but that looks very very nice to me. If it's got undisturbed luster, then it's a keeper!

    Thanks for everyone’s input. In hand, the luster is uniform overall and satiny almost like a modern day burnished planchet.

    64 or 65. Likely dipped at some time.
