    Great luster but lots of hits on Libertys leg and the gouge on the eagle breast. 63

    Poor quality photos. No better than 63 due to hits on liberty's leg.

    A pic of my 38 (D mint tho) with a mark on the obverse in a similar area

    Hence my guess as a 63

    Appears lustrous. I'll guess 64.

    No grade from those pics from me image Booming luster obscuring detail with contrast/white balance off to these old eyes...guess 64+?

    Luster carries it to a 64, despite the obverse chatter.

    soutwesbullancorn call it a gem, which technically is a 65 but, maybe my standards
    are a couple points tighter.

    I'd say MS65. I've seen 65's with that much chatter, I think the luster carries the coin.

    Would prefer bigger pix, but I'd say 64 easy, and 65+ wouldn't surprise me. Has a very Gemmy look.

    The luster is good but too many hits for 65. I say 63 maybe 64.
