MS 66, not full steps (reverse nicks). Obverse looks clean, but I feel that those few spots on the reverse may have taken a toll on the grade.

 

65 fs.

 

Wow, that Obverse is beautiful. It's 67+ worthy, but the reverse drops it to net 66 for me. No FS

 

66 No FS

Too bad for those nicks on the steps, otherwise it's a possible 67FS

 

Is that an RPM?

 

My thoughts exactly! Nice nickle.

 

MS 66 no fs

 

67, not full steps. Nice clean obverse. Reverse is still good enough for 67. Attractive toning.

 

.I also gave this a 67. The luster is amazing. Nice one Lehigh.

 

MS66, full steps.

 

66 not FS

 

I say 64 and full steps. Big mark in the steps and a multitude of smaller marks on portrait keep it off gem for me. I could see the luster giving it a point bump though

 

Bump, anymore guesses? @kSigSteve @ddddd @Collecting Nut @Paddy54

Reveal later tonight.

 

67FS.

If I remember correctly any marks that are on the planchet that don’t fully strike out are not penalized for step destination. Hope I am right in that. If I am not than there is obviously a large mark across the steps under column 1 that would disqualify it from FS.

 

Missed this one too. I said MS-66, not full steps. Too bad that cut on the left is there.

 

66....clean overall (might even have a case for 67)....I did vote 5FS because I thought they might give it even with the nick through the steps (although they probably should not)

 

This coin has an MS67 obverse with an MS66 reverse and the cut across the steps precludes the 5FS designation. I really have no idea what NGC was thinking on this one, but I can't be mad, I had an amazing submission overall.

 

Can you post the reverse slab shot?
