Since UNC Details is not an option, I voted 64. The major scuffing on the cheek almost pushes it to 63.

 

I voted 64, no star...NT but uneven...did not see a cud...Spark

 

What made you think UNC Details?

 

Anyone else...I'll reveal later this evening

 

The flat pastel coloring in the first picture looked unnatural. It looked better in the second obverse pic

 

65* CAC

 

This one graded MS 64 Star and has a CAC sticker. That's the same grade I would give the coin. However, based on the standards I'm seeing nowadays, I'd grade it 65. There is chatter around the cheek but it's actually less than I've seen on quite a few toned 64s. The fields are also quite clean.

The star is also deserved based on the nice toning (the untoned part will be distracting for some, but I find it interesting; and it's certainly not enough to negate the star).


The special feature that I hinted in the first post was that this coin came from the Binion Collection. It's nothing huge, but one doesn't see a ton of nice toners from the Binion hoard (other hoards are more known for toned Morgans).

 

Here's a full slab photo (above post has video with grade).

 

That toning is awesome. Nice bright colors that are subtle.

 

Good slot machine find.

 

So you collect coins and dabble in hypnotism...

 

You are getting very sleepy....
