    This was the first gold coin I ever purchased and the first one I had slabbed:

    physics-fan3.14 You got any more of them.... prooflikes?

    I'm at 62. Those big scrapes in the obverse field to the right of her head hurt this coin.

    MS62? Maybe 63 but that feels generous. Still a nice coin!

    Beautiful! I rather like the few copper spots on the obverse. I agree with @ddddd, I have a harder time grading gold. I'm thinking this is MS63+/MS64. It certainly has a fair share of minor bag marks, but based on the TrueView, it also got a lot of that "original/undisturbed" looks on the fields, under the few bag marks. I could be wayyy off, but that's my guess :)

    MS63.....

    Capitol bldg columns are worn....some deep gouges....reverse rim has nice dings...looks like wear or rub on high points...."Hitler Mustache" on Lady Liberty....could this coin be an AU-58 ?

    Lack of detail in the Capitol columns, Liberty's right-hand fingers, and toes also hurt.

    The actual photo and TPG photo make this an AU50 Gold is so soft it picks up every ding and scratch,I'll stick to guessing on Silver coins.
