Advice Requested - 1964 Kennedy DDO, Uncirculated in plastic

Here are a few more pics at ~45x. The first 4 were taken with my light diffuser, pics are probably worthless since it kills the shadows. Last pic is of the Y in Liberty with the diffuser off.

Thanks for all the info, I emailed one of the CONECA guys.

Last two and I'm out for the night. Obverse and WE with no diffuer.

Thanks again to all for your help!

 

Looks like a lot of better info than I gave. I agree, ANACS submission is a better choice. Still hoping for at least a 68.

 

All info was good and much appreciated. Time will tell... And yes, hoping for a 68 (or higher!) This is my first "real" find and I'm pretty excited. As a bonus, went to my Credit Union today and discovered that their coin sorter takes $1 coins, so I can now dive into checking all my mint presidential rolls! It'll be ~100 degrees all weekend so it looks like I'll have some good coin time.

 

I think the best you can hope for is a 67. The nick on the nose and the spots in the fields may hold it down.

1964 Proof DDO are not that rare a PR-67-69 Cameo or DCam + Heavy Hair accents
1 more 1964 SMS that is the rarest 1964 coin made 1c-50c

 

That list can be very intimidating Larry. At least it is to me since I'm more of a photograph comparison kinda guy. I'm better with pictures than words and often mis-attribute due to the simplest of factors.

For this newbie, it might work for him of it might not.

Looking at his pictures, I still don't know for sure which die it might be and to make it worse, the degree of doubling, somehow seems less pronounced in the second set of photo's provided.

 

Spot in front of the ear will pull it down even more. PR65-66 would be my guess.

 

That spot will dip off. The Milk Spot next to the T in LIBERTY won't.

 

I agree PR-65 at best, if Pcgs or Ngc would graded this one.I have seen both TPG's body bag 1964 proof due to Spotting.
