    I'll go 64 , but an attractive 64 . Can't see it only grading an AU as the fields are too nice without any chatter .

    Those coins are very difficult to grade imo...
    But I lean toward out of the window and hope MS 65 for you......great toner!

    My initial reaction was MS64, but both services love these coins with deep toning, MS65 wouldn't surprise me.

    It's a pretty coin to me. So many of these are not all that nice. I love the reverse design on these. The toning on the reverse is really nice. I'll stay at MS-64.

    64, unless whatever was behind his head in the first pic is on the coin, in which case, I say 63.

    WOW, nice. In the first set of pics I thought I saw wear on the hair. But the 2nd set looked much better in that regard. A Boomer for sure!
