    Some hits that could keep it to a 65 but luster, luster, luster bring it to a 66 imo.

    I guessed 6, hoping the nicks were visible to the graders. Although they are vertical in nature and may not have been quite as obvious if the coin was lighted from above, as is typical. I could see 67 on this coin, but not 65.

    I don't know what to say about this one. First off, the brown in the field in front of Abe's nose are shiny spots. I have never seen them show that way before, but they did this time. Otherwise, great strike and good luster. However, there are several small nicks. I cannot seen them in hand without a loupe. I will have to assume NGC could not either because they gave it a 67. If they could not see the nicks, I would have to agree with their grade.

    That's a REAL nice coin. I don't see any reason to take off more than 3 points.
