Detailed MS-63 Quality

Luster: The striking luster is good and present , without being spectacular.
-
Strike: The strike is generally crisp , although some minor details may be slightly soft.
-
Imperfections: An MS-63 coin is considered a choice piece. It exhibits a moderate number of obvious contact marks , or several light scratches, visible to the naked eye. These flaws result from the minting and bulk packaging process but do not detract from the coin's overall visual appeal.
