[QUOTE="ddddd, post: 3625385, member: 22377"]I think the bottom one (reverse toned) is at least one point higher (and likely 1.5). There are less contact marks in the fields, the cheek is cleaner, the luster is stronger (a bit of an assumption based on the photo of the other), and the color is at worst a wash (I’d argue the reverse toner is stronger color wise but it may be held back by not being on the obverse). If I was not using color bumps, I’d call the original coin a 63+ and the bottom coin a 65. If I do market grading/color bumps, I’d call the original a 64+ and the other a 66. If I used the basis of the original being a 65, I’d call the other a 66+.[/QUOTE]
