Always took candy from strangers Didn't wanna get me no trade Never want to be like papa Working for the boss every night and day --"Happy", by the Rolling Stones (1972)
i had thought "Proof" when i first opened the thread mainly because of the sharpness of the denticles, but i figured the little roughness of the cheek and some contacts meant MS. either way it's a nice coin. in-hand the mirrors would end any indecision.
Listen. Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony. Will’sProoflikes
No hints but it is currently at pcgs to get trueviewed. If 3 people answer correctly before I get the trueview image then I will disclose of the grade, if not... just going to have to wait for the trueview to be posted

Accurately graded, IMO...of course, that was my opinion before I knew the grade, also, LOL...
Great coin and beautiful color!

Edited to add: Did this per chance come from ThePennyLady? Great coin! I'd sure love to own one that nice.
edited to state my reason for the low guess. It looks much, much nicer. If it were a 64, it would be worthy of a couple of gold beans.

As for the grade I would suspect she's a PR66RB, and based on the picture, she's a top level one at that.

I can buy that for a market grade. Take away the strike and toning, though, I don't know that that's every bit a technical 67.

None of us do, based on images of a proof coin. And the same would apply if the coin graded 66 or 65 or 64, etc.

I thought a "PR" before my "67" was redundant, given the reply I was quoting. I hope that wasn't too subtle for you.
