An NGC or PCGS MS-65 Coin

PCGS - Professional Coin Grading Service and NGC - Numismatic Guaranty Company are internationally recognized third-party services that use the Sheldon Grading Scale to classify coins from 1 to 70.

An MS-65 coin means that the analyzed coin has the same format as a business coin but still displays high-quality luster despite its aged mintage. Minor contact marks and scatters may be noticeable, but the coin's overall quality is above average.
