    I've no guess, but the toning on the reverse is some of the most beautiful I've seen. Congrats on such a fine-looking piece.

    Beautiful coin lets give it a MS65, but somehow I really feel it will grade higher maybe even 67.

    ok, I'll bite, how are the breaks in luster that I've circled, NOT an indication of circulation wear?

    I'm not argueing that the coin isn't spectacular, because it is, I just can't see how those spots can be anything other than wear.

    CT, the marks are breaks in the frost on the devices - bag marks in other words.
