Ok here is my new purchase, guess the grade. The pictures arent mine and doesnt show the luster the coin has.
This came back as an MS63. In hand I think this is at least a 64 but what can you do, cant win them all. Still love the coin
The mailman came today - and I am back home. I suspect it is truly a 64/65 coin but was downgraded because of the eye appeal.
1981 is a common year for these. We've discussed it quite a bit and I think it's caused by the planchet sheet rollers.
