    nice die crack on the reverse

    I would say RB versus RD, and MS64/65.

    64 RB. I think the hits on the right side of the shield would keep it from being a 65.

    Nice coin!

    MS64RB.

    I have no idea what they'll call it. Sure is nice. 10% original mint red, enough to elevate above BN. Big "thumbs up" on that one, bro.

    Great coin!!!
    Nice MS for sure I would tend to agree with 64-65. This is a keeper!

    Reverse from U of UNITED through bottom of stem to bottom of ribbon.

    Tip of left ribbon to the left serif of "U" - if, in fact, that's a die crack. I suppose it is.

    what Hobo said.

    Sure looks like a die crack.

    RB?
    Okay, I'll concede.

    You are all very nice people but me thinks you are all a tad generous. Yep its a nice coin with a nice die crack but I personally would call it MS62 at best we will just have to wait and see...

    I'd buy it for MS-60 money,easily.

    It is a nice coin.

    Nice coin but I don't think 64.

    Good shot at 63RB though.

    Very nice 2 cent coin. I'd have to give it an MS62RB.

    OK The grade has been posted on the PCGS site but I don't have the coin back in hand yet.
    I will give it a few days more to see if anyone else wants to chime in with a grade or maybe change their previous grade.
    In an effort to make this more educational please give your reasoning behind your assigned grade not just throw out a number. That way newbies or people who are not experienced in this series will hopefully learn something useful.

    AU58 (technical grade IMHO),Looks like some rub on the arrows' tips on the obv as well as some on the wreath on the rev. PCGS market grade is probably MS63RB. A beautiful coin anyway you look at it.Would love to have it in my collection. John

    I'm going 63RB with a shot at 64.
