<p>[QUOTE="IBetASilverDollar, post: 2751442, member: 85251"]Yep! Even in hand with a loupe sometimes you'll see things you're not certain of with the tone covering it. I have a couple others similar color to this that I've gone over with a fine tooth comb and just can't see any reason they shouldn't be 2 grades higher but I'm sure the TPGs know the tone is covering hits in certain areas that I'm not seeing, etc.</p><p><br /></p><p>This one however I think is every bit of 66. The main question is how much do you discount the location of the 1 main hit on the nose? I think if that hit isn't on her face this is a no brainer high five 67. This coin is less marked than 2 of my 3 67s and cleaner than every one of my 66s including a few 66+ CACs. You can't tell in the pictures but even with all the tone the obverse still has nice luster and the reverse is proof like. The reverse as a whole is just unreal I may never find a cleaner one and the die polish lines (I think that's what those are?) add to the look IMO. </p><p><br /></p><p>Anyways, god willing I live long enough this one will be with me for a loooooong time. Was one of the first coins I bought and one of the ones that got me hooked.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i.imgur.com/X9VwWRm.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
