    MS62 at best......The reverse is pretty clean, but that won't make up for all of the nicks & dings on her face and neck.

    There doesn't seem to be a whole lot of chatter, but there are some major digs. Not really confident, but I'll say MS-64

    I can't quite reach 64 for it, but if the look in the image is true - with all the major distractions on the cheek low near the jaw - I could understand it receiving that grade. Reverse is decent and all the fields look fairly clean. MS63.

    Thanks for all the guesses and comments.

    @cpm9ball nailed it out of the gate at 62. I think it's a 63 and the small dent on the reverse above the eagle head knocked it down. I liked the album toning and in hand the reeds are a beautiful blue. I had to have it and for only $45 I was a happy camper.

    I was actually going to guess 64 until I saw that last set of pictures.

    physics-fan3.14 You got any more of them.... prooflikes?

    I'm a bit late, but I also was going to say 62. If the luster were a bit stronger, you'd get a 63. The color is nice, but not enough to affect the grade. The scrapes on the cheek and neck, and the big hit above the eagle's head, really hurt the grade. Nice coin, for a 62.
