    If you already know, don't give it away, and if you don't know, don't cheat.

    Sorry for the orange. I have a new light set up and need to find a daylight bulb for it.

    Looks 63 to me. Pics are too small to see if the bell lines are full.

    Looks better than a 63, I say MS 64. Not enough details in the bell line to warrant FBL.

    The hit above Franklin's eye is distracting enough to hold it back from anything higher than 63, couple that with those spots on the obverse, and 63 is as good as it gets.

    I'm at 63 from the image.
     
  11. I was going to say 63 but it looks like it is in an NGC holder, so I was say 64 but no FBL. TC

    MS-64 FBL. Maybe the pic wasn't good enough to show it.

    64 is what I expect, but for some reason, 65 wouldn't surprise me.

    I think some of the marks all of the other members are seeing are only the slab... But, hey, I could be wrong. :rolleyes:

    EDIT: Oooooops. Late again! I now see them grade has already been revealed. :p

    The big mark above his eye is on the coin.

    If the scratch left of the L in Liberty and the spots are on the coin and not just blemishes on the photo, I'll go with MS63 because they are distracting.

    Edit: Oh yeah revealed. That'll teach me to read all the posts before I post.

    Woo Hoo I guessed MS-64...I win! Please package the coin very carefully before you send it to me. I don't like when my slabs get scratched. Thank you for the contest Detecto, I hope you knew about it.

    Nope. One lamp is a daylight CFL and the other is halogen. I'm waiting on another lamp to arrive.

    I'm assuming this is a sarcastic comment, but if not...

    Did I miss something? :scratch:
