    These can be tough between 66 and 67.....leaning toward 66 with spots and reverse left wheat.

    Like Thad said , either a 66 or 67 , has the luster for a 67 but that week strike . But NGC loves that luster . Have to go with the luster , 67 .

    Great luster and minimal ticks. The strike on the obverse is solid, but the reverse leaves a bit to be desired. Most of what you see on Abe is shine and not spots, but those are spots in front of Abe's nose and on the rim at 8:00 are on the coin. I would go a 66+ were it not for those spots. They are not distracting enough for me to drop it even with the spots. Regardless, PCGS and I agree that it is a 66.

    I thought the reverse would help it reach 67. Nice looking coin.
