I doubt that anyone will ever guess the assigned grade exactly right. But nobody has come close enough yet to declare a winner. So anyone who hasn't guessed yet - take a shot.
This is something that has not been posted in this thread previously (as far as a I know).
It is an old ANACS photo certificate. Each side of the coin was graded independently.
So the (unlikely) 100% correct answer would have been "AU55/55".
But "55" is also acceptable

You won't believe this but I happened to have out my 1921 and it is exactly what you have ANACS old photo grade in the exact same grade. I compared it to your pick and said 55 because they look the same.
@Rc5280: “correct” sort of. Decision was reached some weeks ago by the thread participants to indicate MS or PR in front of the grade #. As this one’s a pretty obvious MS, you’re up!

Thanks. Yes, it was an MS Rosie to me. It's a nice one too!
This next coin was in a batch of ungraded CC GSA's that I recently sent to our hosts.
Unlike another batch that I sent to CACG recently, this group(3) was submitted for GSA crackout grading due to damaged GSA cases/plastic - except for this one below.
I had requested that they slab it up in a Gold Shield std holder with the Reverse up / Reverse showing on label side.
I wonder what it would grade if it were in the old "ANACS photograde" that @dcarr & @Clackamas1 had talked about yesterday!?
It' a tale of two coins - Bigtime. ⇊ What's your 'combined' grade?...

Correct.
I think it had a better shot at 67 before the ms70 bath. What exposed the hit by his ear among others.

Ok, I will declare @Clackamas1 the winner.
