    I'll say MS 64... it's not a proof, right? Just a very nice Unc example?

    Based on the die characteristics/diagnostics for matte proofs or rather the look&feel of the coin?

    Based on the Great Southern logo on a raw coin I'm going to say UNC details cleaned :-( But if it looks as good in hand as in the photos it has to be 65 or higher, not sure about matte proof. I hope you cherry picked them, I've heard of that happening.
