    His pictures are not that bad. :)

    I think a 66, but the hit behind the ear worries me. Not sure if the pictures made it look worse that it is or what.

    Any marks you are seeing here are on the slab. This coin is about as mark free as I have seen and it is a solid strike There are a couple very tiny planchet marks left, but you have to use a loupe to see them. It has great cartwheel, but not great shine. Despite the shine, PCGS says this one is a 67.

    Someone once asked me the difference between NGC and PCGS grading. Maybe this one shows it at least some of it. I am not sure if NGC would call this a 67. It does not have the luster of any of NGC's 67's I have seen.
