<p>[QUOTE="krispy, post: 860105, member: 19065"]<b>TC,</b> Do you have the reverse image also? Is this your coin? Looks like a TeleTrade image based on the file name. To me, their pics typically do not have enough detail for close up photographic inspection of the coin. The lighting always seems flat or imbalanced, so you have to look really hard for the pros and cons of any coin they image.</p><p><br /></p><p>Without the reverse to look at, I'll guess NGC MS64, which I feel may be too high with the amount of marks on the obverse. I've seen similar '72 Ikes by NGC at MS63 with this amount of marks. This coin also looks ever so slightly struck off center and weak around the "I" in Liberty in the 11 o'clock region, but it has the full leg of the "R" so it's not a worn die state (I think)... The 'bag marks' don't distract that much for me to say they may have gone MS64 on this.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
