    Picked up this beauty today. Graded by ANACS. As a reminder, I think ANACS has been grading these tougher lately than NGC and PCGS.

    Sweet!
    Crisp detail and depth of field.
    64 -- not sure how tough ANACS is grading, seems more than a point better than your 63

    Just using the NGC photo as comparison, I'd say 63-64.

    It is the nicest "MS61" in my collection! I think it looks like at least a 63 to me. I am tempted to re-grade with NGC, just to see what they would say.

    agreed, ANACS has been very tough lately.

    Nicest 61 I've ever seen

    I'd regrade that. I was thinking MS-63 at the least, more likely a 64. There's hardly any wear on the bonnet or cheek bone. It's a beautiful coin, full of luster. It's no wonder I love this series. :)
