    Curious about the thoughts of the community on this coin. Not the best of lighting on my own pics, but sharing one picture of the obverse under natural and artificial light, and one at an angle. I've also attached the Truview image.

    65+. 66 wouldn’t surprise me but it’s an 80-s clean cheek and frosty I think it just misses PL

    My logic would be:

    Reverse a 66PL
    Obverse I would say is 64+ harder to tell if PL

    My guess? 65PL

    Wherever I am wrong I would love to learn.

    Edit: I will say PL coins photograph very poorly, meaning any imperfection looks horrible in a photo. If the obverse is better in hand than in pictures, (very likely), I really could see 65+ or 66. PL coins are tough on the computer to judge. Sounds like a cop-out, but its just the truth.

    I’m not seeing PL in the pictures. But I have trouble grading from pictures. I feel the chatter in front of MS Liberty’s nose may hold it at MS64. A beautiful coin nonetheless

    It looks 64+ to me. I can’t tell If it’s PL from these pictures.
