Beautiful coin. Slightly undergraded.

 

Not sure if anybody cares, but finally received this yesterday. And will be shipping it off on Monday for a re-holder. I took a gamble thinking the marks were on the holder and (luckily) that is in fact the case! The two most distracting marks (left of Liberty's ear; and NW of the ear, in her hair) are both 100% on the holder! Additionally, under many different light sources, the field appears pristine - can't see any of the haze in sellers photos (OP). I'm thinking @Morgandude11 is right - this could be PR65 on a good day. Might take a further gamble and regrade (vs. simply re-holder).

Either way, I'll circle back whenever the TrueViews are available.

As with many of our coins, this looks soooo much better in hand than in the photos

 

Got to this party late. Missed it on both accounts, I was thinking MS65 just couldn't make it look like a proof.

 

What a beautiful lady! Where did you find her? I'm at a 65 on this one.

 

I rescued her from Heritage Auctions. She seemed sad, lonely, and needing a good home. But hey, who rescued who?
