The luster on this one could land a plane. Anyone think it has the technicals for a 67 or do my pics suck? Theres a little hit on the upper left thigh. Mostly a hit on the luster that drowns the coin. Is it too much to keep up there?

    I think it would be worth a shot.

    << <i>Per my monitor the blue is a little suspect. It may get a genuine grade. 55-p Washington's do tone blue very frequently but that blue looks suspect.

    If it get's the 67 it will be worth 1k minimum. >>



    The blue seems to light at the top i guess? THe progression seems in line with natural mint toning ive seen but they are often darker blues. I dont think this is a mint set but I suppose i have no way to tell.

    Based on a seated dime I just sent in that had very subtle toning and it came back 91, I would be really suprised if that graded right now.

    Looks like a nice coin, with great luster. A coin with color is always going to be more scrutinized by PCGS than one without. It looks like a clean coin though, so taking a shot at it shouldn't be out of the question.

    Its a break in luster that seems to be refelcting poorly. But ultimately I dont think the color passeson this one. even if its 60/40 towards NT I think it would get bagged.
