Does the reverse keep this out of a 5 holder?

What say you. I think the obverse by itself is a no question 6. Maybe a 4+ image

    This is one of those coins that the old Anacs photo certificate independent obverse and reverse grading really makes sense. They graded this coin MS65/63.

    I think the reverse limits this to a 64.

    I think it has a good shot at a 5. Looks like a 6 obv and 4 rev. If it was the other way around, then it would be 4.

    It is an 1881-s... this date is held to a higher standard

    Experience the World through Numismatics...it's more than you can imagine.

  • It's a 64+ in my opinion...

    63. 1881-S comes very nice and is very, very common in high grade. There is no reason to be generous with this date.

    I agree with Bear.
    When in doubt, don't.

    It didn't help. I like the coin.

    I would be happy to own that coin as an MS64 any day.

    Thanks for the replies, this is one of those coins that has a ton of eye appeal, but at 64 is just not worth the cost of submitting. Hint for the vam, check out the eagle's wing.

    I think it's got a great shot at 65.
  • Hard to judge the reverse image but the obverse is good enough that it has to be at least a shot 65 as the obverse is a lock and they might forgive some of the reverse issues depending on what it looks like in hand image
