I hope this does not constitute "spam" as this is my third consecutive post, but what do you all think about this one?

1920 Canada small Cent PCGS MS-64 BN (the holder is pretty scuffed)

 

@Coinsandmedals you're good!
I've sometimes had to post multiple times in a row so I appreciate it when someone else posts.

As for the Cent, it is another nice coin but for me it looks too dark.
I'll go with NO STAR

 

Pretty on the Canadian but no star

 

No star

 

Nice but no star

 

I agree, that cent is too dark for a star. Cool greens, though.

 

Any other opinions?

 

It appeals to my eye. Going against the grain: Star.

Star or no star?

 

It’s close, but one of the graders will certainly object.

No Star

 

I think it just misses.
No star.

 

Is it Semi-PL or PL on one side? I can't tell for certain.
Just going by color, I think it is pretty but barely misses the mark (NO Star).
