MS66RD

 

I am not seeing anything holding it back from MS66. Not sure but I would say RD, not RB. Very nice example!

im going out on the limb here with a ms 65 but it would have a great chance of getting a 66. i dont like the obverse top of the rim and a couple of light scratches. jmo thou

Looks 64RB to me, I could be wrong though

65 RB due to rim problems

I agree, MS65RD due to rim above "IN GOD WE TRUST" (good eye wheat), otherwise I would have said 66 ... the other scratches are minor.

The rim looks as though it could have been in a bezel at one time maybe as an advertising peice, but i really cant tell from the photo

Currently in an old small ANACS MS66RD holder, the stridations on the right obv oar planchet flaws as struck. I agree with the 66 but over time the color has mellowed to a RB. Thanks for the guesses.

Looks like a strong 65RB with a shot at 66. Very, very nice piece!

Darn, I never got a chance to guess!

 

I would have guessed "RD", though. It has mellowed, but it may still have a chance at retaining the red designation.

 

Very nice!
