    I see spots which normally means it's marked genuine details. Otherwise I'd say maybe a 62.

    The reverse color doesn't seem right to me, but I gave it a 64

    The obverse still has nice luster, but that reverse almost glows in the dark it has so much luster - and that coloring really makes it pop. Dead solid strike and very minimal nicks. Most of the spotting you see blend in on the coin. This is my idea of a 65, but I am rather surprised NGC agreed with me.

    To me this picture with the holder makes the coin look much more natural than the pinkish ones to start with.

    But the coin is not nearly that dark. The original pics are really pretty close and I do not see the "pink" you are talking about.
