I would post an MS65 1940-D but I don't own one. The point is that the surfaces of the OP's coin are consistent with those of a premium gem coin....
Greg, Do me a favor and compare the elements of grading between the coin you just posted and the OP's.
That's actually pretty funny. You should posted that photo that Detecto posted with a dog and a caption that said "I dunno"

Yes I was talking to Detecto.
My advice was going to be to tell you to sell them all and then contact a dealer who specializes in CBH's, like TomB, and tell him you want a nice...
That was hilarious! Biggest smile I have had all day, thanks Mike.:D

TomB also offers a numismatic photography service.
Mike, I think you meant B or C.
I highly disagree with that statement. In my experience, luster is the most important element of grading in the gem+ grades. I'm not sure you...
Doug, my use of the term guess the "assigned" grade is necessary because I want everyone to use the same grading standard which is NGC's grading...
That reminds me of the old way to submit coins to the TPG's: coin in a polybag inside a PVC flip. I just started to image my toned ASE's as...
