<p>[QUOTE=&quot;physics-fan3.14, post: 715329, member: 19165&quot;]Going from the provided pictures, I would call this a 65. As GDJMSP indicates, the luster is what will really determine the grade on this one. Judging from the pictures (and how I interpret them), it does not have the luster for a 66. </p><p><br /></p><p>The coin is well struck, but it does not meet my standards (or NGC&#039;s) for FBLs. It would be called a FBL at PCGS - but that is pretty much worthless in my books. Remember, PCGS only uses the bottom pair of lines for the designation, whereas NGC uses both sets of lines. This coin would be eliminated because of the large bagmarks on the top set of lines, an easy to see one on the right, and a harder to see one on the left (partially hidden in the glare). The upper left quadrant also appears to have some weakness. </p><p><br /></p><p>So, to reiterate, I grade the coin MS-65.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
