    66 only because it appears it lacks luster for a 67...unless you shot the coin the in the dark.

    Looks like it has great luster.

    great luster, but a couple marks on the reverse. I think I will risk saying 65, which is a number I rarely like to use, unless, of course, it is my coin.(JK)

    64 - I would have said 66 but the scratches on the rev kill it for me.

    LOVE that deep red color! But, I have to agree with Doug to a certain degree. MS66 coin with shot at 67 had it not been for the scratches.

    MS-65 Red. Lots of scratches but they look like they're on the holder.

    Blazing luster wins everytime....I can see the halo luster on the obverse, very nice.

    Abstain. This looks like a "sucker" coin in that I think the grade and coin may disagree -- and I'm not going to guess. ;)

    Deep red coin with just a few tiny ticks. There are also a few very tiny dark spots. I have no idea if they were there at grading or not, but they are so small, I doubt they made much difference. FWIW, the larger dark areas (as on the chin and shoulder) are shine rather than off color. I really like the color. PCGS wound up at a 66. I don't think there is enough there for a 67, so 66 looks right to me.

    I thought the luster would carry it. Congrats Mr.Hair!
