<p>[QUOTE="Lehigh96, post: 865500, member: 15309"]Let me say that this post shows the danger of grading coins from photos. These photos are so large that they are magnifying every little imperfection on the coin. I think the coin is a solid MS66 but the mark on the cheek (focal area) and the mark on the forehead along with the numerous small ticks on Monticello will limit the grade. The steps are not full as there is a bridge on the 4th step under both the 2nd and 3rd pillars. Having said that, the overall strike and luster on the coin are outstanding.</p><p><br /></p><p>I attempted to use photoshop to clean up your photos and present them at a size that is more conducive to accurate grading.
