<p>[QUOTE="toned_morgan, post: 8249292, member: 97258"]At the direct angle with the light, you can see the areas of wear on the obverse (where there's no more luster, usually the highest points) and it really doesn't cover too much of the bust, however there are quite a few nicks, especially in his jacket, and there's also a bit of stuff on the left edge under LIBERTY. All this adds up detrimentally, so the obverse I would say is around high MS65. The reverse has a lot less wear and is much cleaner, as is expected, so that would be a nice MS67 on a good day. So overall, this is around an MS66 coin. Not bad![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
