Arrived yesterday from Heritage:

I'd say 65FS for the chatter on the cheek and jaw.

[robec1347]

I've seen 67's with the same kind of chatter. I'll say 67FS.

Nice Coin! If it wasn't for the chatter I'd say 67FS but my guess will be 66FS.

[MikeInFL]

65 FS. What a nice strike!

[MAULEMALL]

I've seen 67's with the same kind of chatter. I'll say 67FS.

That coin only got FS because it went to PCGS. MS66 FS MAX. Anything more is overgraded.

[hoard]

I guess 65-66FS but I find the check and jaw quite distracting. That V behind the head, is that a hairline or something.

 

I like the coin mostly due to the very even toning. Nice and attractive.

[leeg]

Appreciate everyones comments on this one. The coin has amazing lustre. This is how the graders at PCGS felt about this coin, on this day.

Awesome luster and a good strike. What a combination! Nice Jeff.

[Hoot]

MS66fs. The weakness from step 3 to 4 under pillar 3 may have caused a grader to keep it from the FS attribution. If the luster is booming, they could have bumped it to a 67.

I reckon I was too late in my guess, but it looks like I was on target!

The coin appears to have outstanding luster and positive eye appeal. Also, I do not believe that what folks are calling chatter is actually that; it is more likely to be the result of incomplete metal flow from the coin not being struck fully.
