[QUOTE="physics-fan3.14, post: 2771363, member: 19165"]Well, I'm a little bit late to this party, but I would have guessed 65. Strike: 66. I agree that this is a nice strike. Luster: 65. Even in these glamour shots, the luster does not appear strong. It appears a bit flashy on the obverse, but the reverse looks to have a creamier type of luster, which does not get high grades. Eye Appeal: 66. The toning is attractive, but the splotchy nature of the obverse toning brings it down some (the look is actually kinda weird, the more I look at it.... the top of the reverse appears original, but the bottom of the reverse and top of the obverse look like secondary toning after a dip.....) The second photos, just posted, also make it look hazy and spotty - flaws hidden in the usually-deceptive so-called "tru"-views. Contact Marks: 65/67. The reverse is flawless. If the obverse matched, this would be an easy 66+ as you mention. However, the disturbances in the field in front of her face limit the grade, and that gash behind her head immediately disqualify this from 66. So, I agree with the 65 grade.[/QUOTE]
