Got it. The coin is indeed very handsome when just under a loupe but as I'm gathering here probably not 67, so probably not worth sending in.

Good to know. I've collected a long time and consider myself generally very knowledgable on US coins, but I've never submitted to a TPG so I will...

I don't think I will, but I'm also curious as to what you think knocks it all the way down to 65? I figured it would get a 66 without much issue....
