<p>[QUOTE="Skyman, post: 2104189, member: 28299"]I quite like both sides, including the toning on the reverse. I graded the obverse 66. The reverse is clean enough for a 66, but IMO the toning mutes the luster enough to drag the coin down one grade at PCGS (as Lehigh mentioned). IMO it would have graded 65 at PCGS (it's always nice to scroll down the page and find your guesses are correct). Personally this is the sort of coin I would jump on because a '45-S in 66 is ~ a $100 coin, while in 65 it's ~ a $35 coin. While the toning mutes the luster on the reverse, IMO it is still attractive toning.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
