The way they have been treating you, I wouldn't be surprised by a MS-63. But I will guess they gave it a MS-64 5FS.

 

I voted MS 65 not FS due to the right side of steps 2 and 3.

 

60-63 NFS

 

64 no fs

 

I wouldn't be a bit surprised to see this coin in an NGC holder graded MS67 5FS. If that gash on the reverse were on Jeffersons forehead it would be a 65. Let's see.

 

MS65, no full steps,although I think it is very close to FS.

 

MS-66

 

I'd normally go MS 65 5FS but based on this order, I went MS 64 not FS
....the steps are close but I'm guessing the graders were less tolerant of the breaks in the steps...as for the coin, those hits on the reverse might have done this one in (and just something about the overall coin seems more "flat" vs the prior ones you posted)

 

64

 

MS64 not 5 fs.

 

65 5FS

Talk about a beat down on the submission this go round.

 

65 not FS

 

Meow places 64fs

 

MS64

 

Any other guesses before the reveal?

 

Ok, nobody got this one right, because the assigned grade is insane!

It just keeps getting worse. I'm sorry.

 

MS-64 not full steps. The bottom step is missing a small amount of the step.

 

They actually never liked giving these grades, and that includes NGC. Yet they'll give grades to greased and polished die strikes. Don't make no sense, somehow.
