66 + 1 RD. If the mark above 1945 wasn't there and the reverse was cleaner, 67

 

I think the hit in the field should hold it back to 65... but love the toning !

 

went with a 66...dang that mark!

 

probably 66 but I will go with 67.. living on the edge

 

Is that a hit in the right obverse field or a scratch?

 

67

 

I would grade it a 65. I think NGC went one higher.

 

I say 66

 

65 Because of that mark . Beautiful toning would have raised it but that mark is distracting .

 

I"m afraid I"m wrong but I went 65.

 

6

BTW, I find this coin VERY attractive.

 

Is that environmental damage at 8:30 on reverse rim? The tic in obverse field and scrapes on reverse around E Plur and ONE are distracting (at least they are to me). I'm probably wrong but I'd go MS-63 red.

 

MS-66RD..vrey nice strike even with contact marks..

 

I will be closing this and http://www.cointalk.com/t182518/ tonight.

 

That scratch above the date is very distracting in the picture. In hand, it is puny and very hard to even tell that it is a scratch. There is a bigger scratch below the TY in LIBERTY. I can't even find that one in the picture. All the little specks you see on the reverse are just that - little. The luster is great and I like the bull's-eye toning. I am not sure I would go with a 67 like NGC, but it is really close.

 

That hit really fooled me , looks so prominent in the pics . Should of asked you how bad it was .
I can see 67 except for that hit , still a beaty of a coin .

 

Good pick on this one , you and shoewrecky were the only ones who got it right .

Dang, missed the vote....glad I did. MS-66 IMO.

 

Have no issue with the 7 grade. Probably worth it, if not technically all there. Upgrade for eye appeal would be my gut feel, now knowing the grade. Good example of market grading perhaps?
