MS 62....a little baggy to go higher and I don't think I see any wear (if there is a bit of rub, I could still see it being a 62 slider).
There was a comment on the PCGS forum about someone watching an unboxing. Every coin was under $400, even the one red core. So at least that one...
And for those wondering about my prowess as an NGC triathlete, I ended up being #36 out of 200 with a 74% accuracy (hey it's a passing grade :D ).
