    It looks like a 65, but I'm guessing PCGS said MS64. It seems for PCGS to give a 1914-S the MS65 grade, it needs to be brighter.

    So, you're saying I should crack it out and dip it to remove the patina of oxidization that is concealing this coin's magnificent luster?image
    You know I'm kidding.

    In my humble opinion it looks to be graded MS-FRICKEN-SWEET!

    It's atleast a 65. It's dripping with luster and some reverse toning. As for Eye Appeal, it's A++++++

    That's a very pretty coin. I'll repeat my assertion that beyond a dozen or so guys grading buffs is like throwing darts. image

    I would guess MS65 But I will say you cant buy that coin for MS65 money its outstanding and a keeper whatever grade it is.

    TDN makes a point even if it is only in humor. Grading Buffs is a real aquired skill and in this state of preservation, an in hand review is really necessary... looks to be in the 64-65 range, but my darts may be off target
