    Scratches on the slab make this harder than it ought to be. PF67 for me.

    Difficult because of the light/shading. I can't see a lot of the coin.
    PF 66 until better photos.

    PF 66. I see a minor discontinuity at upper right of eye brow. It could be on the slab. If on slab, PF 67.

    PF 66. I see roughness on the left side of the reverse, on the railing on the roof.

    Are those scuffs on the collar and shoulder of Jefferson? If they are, I might go PF65.

    This one was a bit difficult to photograph. In hand, she’s a good looker.

    I have no doubt this is a proper grade. Nickels are difficult, and there were
    very few flaws on that coin. I'd have gone 67 (I didn't see the cameo) but I couldn't really see the coin very well even with the second set of photos being a little better.

    I agree 100% with all of this. I don't think the cameo came through very well in the photos. I was actually thinking "not cameo," because it looks like Monticello isn't fully frosted in the second set of photos (which look like they were taken with more light than the first set).

    @Santinidollar the pics worked for me.:cool: Really, I went with more of what I thought you would purchase for your collection.
