Not going to guess, but I love these guys, & this is a really fine specimen. Thanks for posting it!

 

Wowza! Never see fish scales that nice.

 

MS 65? What's the dot on the right of the top star of the reverse?

 

I saw this one in person, so I can't play.

 

Sure you can. You know the grade but I know you have an opinion.

 

That is a small hit or gouge.

 

MS-65

 

64

 

I agree with the grade on the holder.

 

65 + here all day long nice specie ty

 

MS64

 

Not my thing but I said MS-63 due to the rim hit on the reverse.

 

MS64

 

63. Hope it’s higher

 

Nice! You don't see these often with fully struck stars

 

I'm not seeing much of anything that would keep it from MS65

 

Overall, you guys did really well. I picked this coin for it's flashy fields and strong strike, even though it's not entirely free of some weakness in the shield lines. The poll results were:

MS-62 - 1
MS-63 - 3
MS-64 - 7
MS-65 - 7
MS-66 - 0
MS-67 - 0

The coin this replaces in the Type set is shown below.

Thanks for playing!
