GTG 55 Washington

This one is on the verge of terminal toning, but very colorful and lustrous
The scratches on the obverse were a pain to try and get thru.
Good luck.

MS-64

 

Ooo - I like that rusty, crimson toning; quite unique!

I'm in the same boat.. thinking it's MS64

Edit- voted MS64*

 

That looks like a MS-64 that was in a fire.

 

Yes there is a lot of red and orange/ even a little purple.

It is crusty.

 

I added a poll.

MS-65

 

MS66+

 

The toning is nice but no way star worthy. The coin just doesn’t have the look of a premium gem unless the photos are hiding luster. I have it at straight MS65.

 

MS-64

 

I’ll guess MS-64. This is tough with the toning!

 

For all those that are guessing less than gem. What are you seeing?
In terms:
Is there a contact mark? or do you think that the toning is hiding the true coin? It is dark, but do you think that there should be a bump for originality? Or, do you see enough evidence on the surfaces to keep it from Gem.
I will say that there is a pretty deep bag mark crossing from the U (bus) to the wing. Also one on the obverse (very hard to see with the toning) but it is there.
I will try and show the full luster no color in the reveal.

 

I’m can’t see bad wear or marks due to the toning. Personally, my guess is just a shot in the dark. I look forward to the reveal!

 

I'm going with 66 don't see that many contact marks looks gem to me.

 

looks like some one on the coin then it toined from being stored in the right place for a while/coin roll definitely not star worthy but its kind of attractive.

 

I will post the reveal after work today.

 

MS62...in an old ANACS slab and was graded 64 when it was brilliant.

 

MS 64 or lower.

 

From the devices I can see that aren't masked too much by the color, I think it's easily gem. MS65 on the low side.

 

Tbh... I think the coin is a very ugly one... The toning makes it look ugly and to me there is no luster.
