I found it difficult to grade this by the pictures, The luster is not really visible. I was going to say MS-63 before I read the posted grade...
64 RD That hit on Lincoln's lapel is pretty big and the jawline has a lot of rub going on
I wouldn't want to grade these from those photos but I would hazard a guess that the coin is in the 63/64 range as TC has said. All 73 Ikes come...
I don't know if wear is punished as much as people put too much emphasis on the MS grade. It's true that an MS-60 coin is not attractive, nor is...

I agree Hobo, those are difficult shoes to fill indeed. In the short interaction that I had with her I learned that she is also a very nice lady...
we all paid for our numismatic educations, silver. If that's all you paid, trust me, you got off cheap. :)
I agree that a D mint reverse proof SAE would be awesome as well. If you want a P,D,S set of proof Cannyn, you can purchase a 1984 Olympic Set....
