    I'm really happy with this purchase! I'm happy with this coin, I'm happy with it's holder, and I'm happy with it's grade.

    But I wanted to share it with you all and see what your thoughts are on it's grade. Thanks in advance for your input.

    Well, I think this Columbian has such great eye appeal that it is difficult to get a tight consensus on it's grade. Thank you everyone for giving your opinions and input. I've taken the average grade between the different forums that I'm active in and the results are as follows:
    64.40 - Coin Community
    63.36 - Collectors Society
    63.09 - Collectors Universe
    64.33 - Coin Talk

    63.80 - Overall Avg

    This coin is actually in an old ACG holder and I picked it up for a great price! I like it in it's current holder and plan on keeping it there while I own it. I do believe it's graded super conservative, and I've actually printed a label and added my grade onto the holder, lol. I don't normally do this, but think it was needed for this beauty. I've graded it MS-63⋆

    Thanks again everyone!
