    Is the "cleaning" on the reverse pic on the coin or the slab?

    I assume you are talking about the lines. They are on the coin, but look real close before you jump to any conclusions.

    66 only because of the lack of luster and the couple nicks on the cheeks on the coin else it would be a 67.

    MS66 RD, way too many hits for a 67,

    Cazkaboom One for all, all for me.

    split between 66 and 67. went with 66 because of the hits on cheek and jawline, along with remnants of die polish suggesting the luster isn't as booming, for example, as the other coin this week.

    65. Too many minute ticks. Of course with the right lighting and photography, you could make it look better than it is.

    My first thoughts were genuine, but you wouldn't buy a genuine coin? I'd have to say 65RD, would make a fine 67 darn...

    This and http://www.cointalk.com/t201736/ will be ending tonight.

    Note; There will be a pause at least until next Wednesday or likely the following Saturday. This Saturday's scores may well be late.

    I was torn between 65 and 66; neither would surprise me.

    Again, it is mostly in the pictures. Another case of you cannot see them on the reverse in hand. However, they are actually worse on the obverse and you can actually make something out on that side. Super strike and great luster, but a couple nicks and a bit of dirty color keep it at a 66. Apparently the lines had little effect on the grade.

    52 rounds ago, there was a 10-S that you had problems grading. Since those score went away this time, those of you who guessed probably got a nice jump in score. BadThad is our new leader, but for such a change in the scoring, there was surprisingly few changes in the rest of the standings

    Top 10. Columns are rank, name, average, and number of guesses.
