[QUOTE="JPeace$, post: 2318495, member: 42727"]I find this date to be the hardest to grade in MS because of the weak strike. IMO, the OP's coin in both his pictures posts shows cleaning hairlines. I'm also in the AU details camp. Here's a picture of a cleaned '21 I bought on purpose. I also own a '21 in MS64. This coins shows far less cleaning lines that the OP's coin. In hand, you can barely see the lines, but they are there. When I bought the MS64, I had looked for a while for a coin with a "more complete" strike. I have to speak in relative terms, because I haven't really seen a '21 with a complete strike of the hair over the ear.
