    Picked this up today, with the massive toning I couldn't pass it up. It resides in a PCGS slab if that helps.

    64 anyone have an idea what the lines are between the "T" and "Y" ?

    a bit of a fingerprint. The oil from the print keeps the coin from toning in those areas.

    I was wondering since it continues over to the back of Mercury's head.

    66 no bands. I wouldn't call it wildly toned; however, I do like it.

    Ill say 65 no bands, although 66 is possible w a bump up for eye appeal.....
    Im guessing the luster is beaming under that toning and the photo doesnt do it justice
