    'Late' and lovely.......I'm at '64, but I'm a novice with these pieces.

    Pretty cool!
    Hard to grade such a late die state, but I am guessing that they gave it MS-65.

    Not verdigris... just green gunk! It may go to NCS.

    Whoa, very cool. Those obverse clashes are awesome.

    63, could easily see 64 if the luster is strong in hand.

    Initial thought was MS-63 on a phone with small pictures. Bumped up the pictures, and I see MS-64.

    Love the coin!!!

    I love it!!! I'd call it a 64. Those die breaks on the reverse are amazing. I'm going to have to look that variety up. :)

    I’m torn between 63 and 64. So I’ll take the coward’s way out — 63 plus.
