Here is a thread from the PCGS forum where a guy was able to get one of his coins slabbed and noted as 'Dad's Dollar"...
I looked at the answer and it does seem a tad conservative...it might have to do with the weaker strike as mentioned earlier
I guessed MS 63...some contact marks and looks like good luster
The picture is certainly difficult to decipher....I'll guess MS 65 (from what I can see, there are no hits/marks...luster is hard to tell...eye...
AU 55 ....shows wear and the luster is muted enough to prevent a 58 (although it could be the photo).....the color is nice....solid coin overall!
I went AU 58 ...I believe there is a touch of wear....nice coin!
What's interesting is that I had never seen one before and suddenly a small hoard popped up on eBay. So far 14 have sold and 9 more are still...
I would guess most would also think of the snake but being a coin person, I associate it with the PCGS slab. And these do rattle in the holder,...

8 from me...nice color!
A nice coin with a classic design-worthy of at least the 8 I gave it. :D
66 Not FS ....I again debated 66 vs 67 but went conservative due to a few minor scuffs (probably too conservative)...the black spot under Unum on...
An interesting read this has been! @Dnas what are prices like on certified coins at Ginza? I saw a few PCGS holders in the photos that show up...
There are no exact numbers-just anecdotes. If you have a few 69 graded coins where the jump in value to 70 is a decent amount over the grading fee...
The silver war nickels have the mint mark above Monticello. 1942 had both silver and non-silver (for which the mint mark is on the obverse for...
MS 66 6FS ...I debated 66 vs 67 but went conservative with 66 (it's clean but I was slightly worried about it missing the needed luster for a...
