    This must have been struck on a beautiful planchet , a little week of a strike , especially on the O of One but not one noticeable planchet mark . Decent luster and almost nick free . Do they give 67s with a weak strike ?

    Wow... that's gorgeous... I say MS68, but strike probably pulls it back to a 67RD. I voted 68, since I believe it deserves a 68, regardless of strike.

    I'd give it a 67 , but I think PCGS will hold it back .

    This is pretty well mark free and has nice luster again with a matte looking finish, but there is a discoloration at 3:00. The strike definitely weak. If nothing else, the strike had to keep this one from getting a 67. PCGS only gave it a 66. I am more on the low side of 66, but I guess it deserves a 66.

    One right and one wrong , thought I nailed both of these , but that 67 threw most of us for a loop . Hope I dropped at least one bad score .

    Dang...I thought this one would have the luster for 67. 0 for 2 this time around...that'll hurt.
