<p>[QUOTE="Omegaraptor, post: 7592113, member: 76105"]The ding on the obverse in front of the nose and on the neck would preclude this coin from anything above a 64-65 (ultra moderns are graded really tough). A modern coin grading 68 has to be truly exceptional. I'm not talking just lack of contact marks, I'm talking top notch luster and eye appeal as well. It has to truly stand out from the rest and you'll know when you have one, since even 67s probably occur once every several thousand coins, if that.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
