    Oh my, what a beauty! That looks like it came straight from its double mint set. As far as the grade, I have to ponder more...

    Again, very nice strike and not booming luster, but pretty good. There are a couple small nicks noticeable. Again, I would give this a 65, but it has a couple spots. However, this one also has some real nice eye appeal (i.e. color) going for it. Maybe it is not a candidate for a +, but NGC gave this one a 65. With those colors, I guess I have to agree.

    You were far from the only one to get the grade right on the wrong coin.

    The pictures made the fields look worse than they actually are. The slab pic is probably closer to how it looks in hand.

    Dang - I missed a couple. Might be a good thing since I think I would have been one of the 64's.

    I thought for sure those reverse spots would have kept it from a 65 .

    Didn't think I would ever make it back to the top. You guys are really good at this. I reduced the size of the image to grade this one and added a point for the color.
    The image did a great job of showing how pretty the coin is.
