I see absolutely nothing "prooflike" on this dime. It does have nice frosty luster and a great strike, so that MS67 is warranted in my opinion, but comparing it to a proof is apples to oranges.
Speaking of CAC, has anybody seen a fake CAC sticker on a slab? CAC might be the solution to the fake slabs in the marketplace.
The photographs are a bit blurry but you can see the luster with great clarity. The half dimes and dimes are giving you great troubles.
Oh, since we are obligated to mention CAC here I will say that you prove my point about the importance of the auction house, and that it is far better of a solution than the CAC idea.
Actually, PCGS graded the coin VF20, and CAC agreed. I own the coin: p.s. Ruben, I did say your merc was well struck -- I think you misread my post.
Fortunately, I was able to photograph Ruben's Merc before he was able to remove the CAC sticker. CAC RULES!!!!!! :devil:
