<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mikenoodle, post: 1071673, member: 307&quot;]I say MS-66. The center of Monticello is weak, but all of the rest of the detail is there. There seem to be no planchet flaws, and the surfaces are clean and unworn. The die polish lines are really cool and shows that the die state is late for this coin. A large number of the 1939-S (reverse of 1938) are generally well-struck and full step coins exist. The weakness of Monticello on this particular coin may limit the grade to MS-65, but I think that the obverse strike pulls the grade up to MS-66.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
