    On the other hand, if it was SGS, it would have been MS70.

    Is that a fingerprint on the coin?

    It looks like a couple of fingerprints.

    Yea, I was thinking that MS64 may be a bit generous even.

    I can't believe I'm saying this, but 64 looks like the right grade to me.

    Must have been a collector that sent it to PCI....Mike

    Regardless of the real grade, that coin is ugly looking.

    With all the black toning spots, blah color, shininess (hits) on the breasts and knees, that's the type of coin that should be in an MS62 slab.

    There used to be a Ike Dollar around that was in a PCGS slab...it was a nice high grade coin....after Heritage sold it fingerprints pop'ed up all over the coin...there wasn't a place left on the coin that there wasn't a finger print...I think it sold for more just because of the bad look....wish I had saved a photo.
