64, primarily due to thin, but long reverse scratch in left field. The movement in the video is considerably too fast.

I first thought higher end 64... saw the scratch on the reverse... but then got hypnotized by the video of the obverse...

The movement in the video is considerably too fast.It’s because I have to reduce the frame rate significantly to get the animated GIF to a file size that the forum software will accept. If you have knowledge about how to post full resolution video in a post, I am all ears.
Barring that, I think having the video as-is is better than not having it for purposes of evaluating the coin.

I would say MS-65+. For once the obverse is better than the reverse. If the reverse rules, you could go as low as MS-64 because there is a significant mark on the eagle's back, and there appears to be a very thin but long pin scratch running through to tops of the rays. Still I think think that the obverse will probably carry the piece.

Looks a tad bit too shiny in the video therefore I will be contrarian and say Unc details cleaned.

64+ despite the reverse scratch. No CAC.

I believe "plus grading" at PCGS began in 2010. This holder has prongs which did not appear until 2011.

AU55.That's strike weakness. Believe it or not, this coin is quite well struck for the date.

Using a Vimeo link is the only method I’ve found that shows a video well. IG posts don’t seem to work anymore, but the Vimeo links embed into the post so viewers don’t have to venture off from the site. That said, my personal preference would be to have the higher quality video even if it means it won’t be embed here.

I'm guessing 64 also

Net 65 shot 64+

55? Yikes, prob. not even a CAC grade at that level. It has the look of a 65 even with a few warts on reverse. Clearly better, at least to my eyes, than 64s and a nice strike at that. Prob. dipped in the past but not objectionably so.

IG used to work that way but seems to be blocked now. I don’t want to use external links as I know some forum members do not click them, and everyone should have the same information for a GTG.

Dan, I believe that was a reply to an earlier post I have copied below. And this serves as a good example of the confusion that can result from not quoting the post to which you’re replying.

How about: The missing detail is due to some weakness in strike, not wear. However, this example is still above average in strike for a 1921”. ?

Ahhh my mistake, thanks Mark. Excuse my misinterpretation @7jaguars, it looks like we're on the same page.

This coin is graded MS64+. Thanks all for input. Many guesses were close. Shoutout to @mirabela with first 64+ guess. I acquired it from the good folks at Witter Coin. It’s as nice as I could expect below a true gem IMO.

Beautiful.
I am glad I was terribly wrong.0 -

Indeed!
I do like it at that grade & would have possibly been a buyer as well. I know it sounds rather crass but wonder at the price paid??

Very nice. For comparison here's my MS64 VAM 3 that just came back with CAC sticker.

It's gorgeous. I really like it. One like that is on my list for the last handful of things my collection needs. Great addition to yours.

I was torn between 64 and 65, so the grade makes sense to me.
Sometimes, it’s better to be LUCKY than good. 🍀 🍺👍
