Agreed. When I buy new coins to go into my NGC Registry type set, I buy PR-69 graded pieces. I have one PR-70 to say I have one. It’s a Jefferson...
Ms. Liberty’s hair is too sharp. It has been given enhanced detail from a fair amount of tooling. You see this most often on early large cents.
It's part of the glue that holds the British commonwealth together. Of course, as it is in the U.S., if the younger generation has little regard...

I agree with @TypeCoin971793. The obverse is wiped, and the rim ding is a further distraction. I would only buy this if I were collecting these...
MS-65 because of small marks on the obverse and the black spot. NGC would probably grade it higher. They are not as tough on modern coins as PCGS...
