Nice tone on that 65.

Nice toner!

At the top end I like it in MS64. That's how I voted. Anything higher than that and they ignored the distracting carbon spots and went crazy on that tarnish which isn't really all that unique on these later-date wheats.

This and Guess the grade #389 will be ending tonight.

I don't know about this one. Luster and strike are fine, but there are definitely enough marks one this to limit the grade to a 65. Then there are those spots on the reverse - and it is in a newer slab so I find it hard to believe they were not there when graded. Maybe they bumped it because of the color, but I would only call this a 64. NGC knows more than I and they called it a 65.

Really had some score changes this week due mostly to the scores from Guess the grade #340 being dropped.

Top 10. Columns are rank, name, average, and number of guesses.

1. Irish2Ice 0.366 43

10. mark_h 0.600 42

These are always interersting to watch on the 'bay... I"ve seen some go off for less than $10, and others that are nearly identical go for $100 or more.
Pure toner lust....

Whoa....I almost went 63!
