I saw the coin and the coin told me it was graded 65BN, so that's what I guessed. :) Think 64 may be a possibility, but luster and fields look...
p.s. very nice color & look for a 63, and congrats on the NEWP.
So are you selling this one or keeping it? ;)

Frankies have really taken a hit over the past few years, particularly MS slabbed ones in 65 and higher (to include FBLs). That said, I own a...

Not bad, but you can do better.
I liked the other one better. :)
Lots of folks used to coat them with lacquer too. My advice: Don't brush your coins, or if you do, start with cheap ones so you have a feel for...
Looks good to me.
That last photo makes the coin look quite different. Regardless, perhaps I should stick to copper. :)
Why would you suggest someone to brush the coin if you are yourself just learning?
