    Hey guys/gals could you give me your idea on what grade this would be? The 2x2 hard plastic container it was/is in says unc.. but I wanted to get your opinion on the MS grade. From what I've read I'd put it at an MS-62 or 63.. any thoughts?

    Yes, I'd go 63 on that one, as long as the brown dots are on the plastic.

    Are the long marks on the obverse on the plastic or coin ?

    The zit on Ike's neck is distracting, if it's on the coin.

    Yeah unfortunately the stripe and the brown spot is on the actual coin. The brown spot under the loop looks to be residue that could be removed, but i can't tell about the stripe on the obverse.

    So we thinking MS-62 ?

    yes, if those marks are on the coin, I'd go MS-62 as well

    So it's worth about 7-10 bucks eh? Thanks to everyone for all your help, CT has been such a helpful resource in identifying coins in my collection and grading.

    Thanks,

    When I saw the title I wondered what in the heck he had. A 1977-S 40% silver Ike? That would have been a REAL treasure, who cares what it graded.

    I'd say with that stripe MS-61 , To me it's very bothersome , other then that it's a very nice coin .
