It's probably MS67 5FS but I voted MS67 in the event that this is a loaded question.

I voted 67 it does not look like a full step coin from the pictures

I'm going with 66 5FS. Doesn't look like it's quite as clean as a 67 should be. I'm not sure if I'm seeing a merge between the 4th & 5th steps but I think it made the 5FS designation.

I went with 66+ 5FS. In reality, I don't think it qualifies for 5FS based on the marks and ticks that obscure the lines, but the strike seems like it might pass. I also think it is borderline 66/67 - so I went with the +. Obviously, depending on when it was graded, this may or may not be present.

I really don't know what is keeping this coin out of a 5FS holder.

 

 

Thanks for all the kudos guys, picked it up from Teletrade for a scant $250. Population 19/0

Why don't you send it in for a designation review the next time that you make a submission with NGC?

Well, before I scrolled down to where you revealed the grade, I voted 67 5FS. I am not sure why it doesn't receive a 5FS, but maybe Physics is right and the tiny mark on the left obscures enough steppage to not warrant a 5FS. Nice nice coin.
