<p>[QUOTE="buckeye73, post: 4128644, member: 93155"]As is frequently the case, I too am late the the party. My opinion was MS 66, based upon only a couple very minor nicks. What one might see as wear in some areas such as the hair and star 7 is apparently mushiness resulting from a weak strike or a worn die. Also, the busy ‘pimple-like’ area on the high cheek near the ear appears to be a result of die imperfections. IMO, this would be a MS 67, if not for the weak strike and/or worn die limitations.</p><p>Thanks physics-fan for all the time spent putting this coin grading experience together.
