    Crossing this over to PCGS. What do you think it will grade? I will disclose current grade after some responses come in.

    Agree about the chatter. This is a sparkler. MS-64. Reverse is nicer.
    Without all the chatter it's very high MS.

    These alloyed 90% golds are a little softer than their alloyed silver counterparts. I'm giving the girl a break, MS64.

    Hmm, this would seem to be an instance of grade inflation to me. I have a 1907-S graded MS-60 (albeit in an old green PCGS holder) that's equally as nice, if not nicer.

    This 1907-D $20 Liberty is graded MS-64. There is another picture of the OP coin on the PCGS blog that makes this piece look like an MS-63 from another angle. I think that the PCGS grade will be MS-63.
