A prime example of a coin that NGC will grade 67 and PCGS will grade 66.... Nice coin, no matter the grade! IMO, of course.
I'll go 67 on this coin , it's nicer than last weeks 67 at PCGS . But you never know with PCGS at least I don't anymore .
there are some light scratches around the top center area of the coin on the obverse and a rim nick near the top right center on the reverse photo of the coin. MS62 red brown
You have to remember that the pic you're looking it is way over blown . I bet you can barely make any of those marks without a loupe and even with a 3-5X loupe which is the most magnification graders use , you'd still be hard pressed to see those . You have to remember in the higher red grades luster is just about everything shy of major hits in prime areas or carbon spots . Odds are this coin would grade no lower than a 66 at PCGS at NGC it's a sure , as sure can be , a 67 . IMHO
No ticks or stains, great luster, and a very good strike. There are only a few very very minor planchet marks left - mark you cannot see in hand without a loupe. Nothing on this one I see to keep it from a 67 and that is what NGC gave it.
Hey! Irish2Ice missed one. MNcoinman moved up to 3rd. Outside of that, there were just some minor flip-flopping.
