Photos by Mark Goodman. You think the hit on the reverse shield will preclude a gem grade?

65, and even 64 to some extent are rare grades for the type. I concur with Mac, yours is a lock 65.

It should be a 65. I've seen "bilge water" examples (Vreneli) in PCGS MS65 slabs.
Obviously, the graders were eating bean burritos the day your 20fr crossed, and just couldn't sit still.
I suspect the old saying the that the reverse can only hurt the grade seems to hold true with this one
Experience the World through Numismatics...it's more than you can imagine.
