    physics-fan3.14 You got any more of them.... prooflikes?

    Based on the contact marks on her cheek and what I think are marks in the field in front of her face, I'm going to call it a 63. With better pictures, and if the marks are not as severe as I think they are, I could see it going 64. The reverse appears to be a solid 64, and that gorgeous obverse toning is going to help it.

    AU-58. Shows wear on both wings, reverse. Probable fake toning obverse, halo effect on stars and date. Scratched holder, not a purchase for everyone.

    Uhhhh.... the halo effect around the stars and date is a really good sign that the toning is natural.

    And show me a holder that isn't a little scratched. This holder looks perfectly fine.

    The neons in this one jumped out at me. The pull away toning was an indication it was natural. ICG said 66 and I had her at 64 due to the contact marks with a weaker strike ( for an 81-S ). I think the luster and eye appeal are on par with 65.

    In hand the contact marks are not as distracting and the colors really shine through the luster.

    Thanks for participating!

    66!?

    Wow, ICG.... there's a reason I urge people to be cautious when playing with odd plastics. I think the fumes got to the grader's head!
