Looks like it was minted yesterday. Not sure if it will score FB though. Could just be the picture.

I just sent you a PM. Did you get it?

The luster must be good and the strike excellent. No weakness in the motto, for example. Also with a small coin it doesn't take much in the way of hits to drop it down. The diff between 66 and 67 is usually a few minor ticks and a little luster.

I would say MS-65, possible FB, not sure from the photo.
