    I have had my eye on this one for quite a while. My trigger finger got tired, so I bought it. It was terribly hard to get the details of this one. I am quite happy with my buy but not the happiest, trying to get the photo to come out with the in hand look.
    Happy guessing! IMG_0001_1.JPG IMG_0002_1.JPG

    A solid and very attractive 65+. The marks on the cheek keep it out of 66, but that is a gorgeous coin. Congrats!

    MS-64, due to the hits on the cheek bone, jaw line, and neck.

    I was going to write virtually the same comment!
    A very nice MS 65+ in my opinion!

    I think the hits on the cheek keep it from a +, MS65! Very nice coin!

    I'm at 65 for the same reasons that others posted above.... this one of those dang shame coins...not that it is bad nust a few small issues that take it from top of the mark to just below near perfect.

    It has one of the those "green C A C things," on it, said, the dealer. IMG_0003_LI.jpg

    So it's a 65A.... which is the same is a 65+.

    Fun Fact, CAC ignores the plus and grades solely on the base grade.

    I can't give an answer either way, it could be but I don't feel like it is one. I am with the grade on the holder. Otherwise I wouldn't have ponied up the money.:happy: By the way I didn't have to pay for the sticker either.

    This HAS to be atleast 65, just based off of the fields alone.
    Final answer 65
    Take it to the credit union

    I am thinking that I am gonna have to wait for the EW Bean. I will wait till his assistant gets him the Memo, then post the grade.
