<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Sunflower_Coins, post: 5004935, member: 92388&quot;]These &quot;crusty&quot; Washingtons (along with the Franklins) from the late 40s/50s are tough for me. I also know they can be difficult to photograph. It appears there is good luster under that flaky toning. I love the reverse (I think the radiant colors around a shining eagle is fantastic) but the obverse seems a bit dull. The thumb print doesn&#039;t help either.</p><p><br /></p><p>That said, I&#039;ve had a few Washingtons that looked like the obverse on both sides, and graded MS66. The couple of marks I see (Washington&#039;s cheek and under LIBERTY) don&#039;t seem that distracting. It could be a 65, but I gave it the benefit of the doubt voted 66 anyway.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
