Having trouble with these photos. Photos look overexposed suggesting a darker coin in hand. Obverse clearly weakly struck. Reverse a bit better. Rims suggest gem grade. Muted luster suggests a bit lower grade. I'm split between 63 and 64. Guessing 64 RB.
MS-63 is my quess. The cheek has a ding and the some detail is missing that suggests a weak strike as mentioned above. Nice coin for the year and thanks for sharing.
The strike's not great, but it's a whole lot better than the MS62 was. I don't see any reason why this coin isn't a 64.
I am not going to count this one in the standings. The coin is hard to see (in hand) and apparently harder to photograph. This may be the most nick free coin I own. The strike is absolutely solid. It even has fair luster if you can catch it right. No one guessed it right, but they gave it a 65.
Thad, I found a typo I made in your guesses. Sorry! Aside from that, sro114 dropped out. Top 10. Columns are rank, name, average, and number of guesses.
