    It's Tuesday and it's Miller time.
    If I was buying this coin raw, I'd be too drunk to evaluate it:wacky:

    Well, I see that it is in one of the old, white ANACS slabs. I'm at MS63, maybe MS64, but no better.

    64+. I almost wanna say au58 but I'll go with cabinet friction or slab reflection

    Wait, it's in a hotel soap slab so 65 maybe

    Is that pitting all around the neck?

    Well she's a very nice girl.......the type you may not want to bring home to meet you mama! That said....she's a 63 possible 64 in the old soap bar. But no matter what she is wouldn't be kicked out of my collection for eating gram crackers! :)

    And looks like she has a little textile toning on her too. Missed that at first. Yeah, that's bag rub

    V50 is likely, in view of the pitting mentioned in the thread. This is an end-of-life die pair, easily the latest wear stage I've seen on an 1881-S. The date and reverse lettering are both drawing to the rim, and it's quite unusual to have to contemplate die wear when making the slider/Mint State distinction for one of these. :)

    I have it at 64.

    Too many dings to make a 64 but I'll go MS-63. :)

    64. A different date or a cc mint that coin would be a 65
