    I'm in at '64 but I suspect the 'powers that be' assigned it a '66 because of the craze of colour. (devil)

    physics-fan3.14 You got any more of them.... prooflikes?

    Wow, looks like someone tried to cut his jugular! Nice color, but the marks I'm seeing on the obverse limit this to a 63.

    And that's if it didn't get UNC Details, Scratched.

    Initially presents as premium gem, but the marks on the lower neck and under IGWT should prevent that grade.

    MS65

    I am trying to remember what Detecto's gig was. I know Ed Wood would come up with some Cockamamie story about how he was late to the party..

    No, Detecto (Tim) would just start a flame war and then disappear. I swear he was betting his friends how many responses he could get in each thread.

    I was going to say MS-65 before I saw the answer. It's a nice original coin.

    The Ed Wood guy always pretended he was running a large numismatic business. He would usually name drop other dealers from the coin industry to reinforce how important he was. Was interesting in a car crash sort of way. james
