    Please guess the grade of the 1932 Denmark 25 Ore shown below. I have attached a poll for you to cast your vote and you may select up to 3 different things: the numerical grade, + grade, and * designation.

    64 or possibly a 65. The small smudges on the obverse might make the differences. Not distracting, but still there.

    The reverse strike appears a bit weak which makes it more difficult to grade from photos. I guessed 63 but it can easily be higher than that. Nice coin.

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

    I think I top out at 63 based on those pictures.

    However... I'm almost always a point low on your GTGs.

    If it is any consolation, MS63 was the grade I was expecting. The price guide in MS63 is $90 and I paid $65 before grading fees.

    Stay tuned, gonna hold the reveal on this a while till we get some more responses.

    Nice to get a key date of any sort under $100

    As I said earlier, I expected an MS63 grade and was hoping to get lucky with an MS64 grade. Instead, I was greeted with the most embarrassing grade of my coin submitting life: MS61

    The coin presents as an MS64, but upon closer inspection, one could easily see why they would assign an MS63 grade, but MS61? The only thing I can come up with is that they net graded the coin due to the severe abrasion above the 1 in the date.

    Looks much nicer than a 61. Are those scratches between the R in ORE and the hole?

    They are, but they are wispy, nothing that should cause a 2-3 point drop.

    Well, that was a surprise, never saw that coming.

    The slab photos seem to show a scruffier coin with less luster than your initial photos.

    Still, 61 seems a bit low.
