    Did anyone not see the luster on this coin? And it has a great strike. Yes, there is a nick on the shoulder, but that is not a critical area. The nick in front of the nose probably held it back as much as the one on his shoulder. Less either of these, I think it would have made a 67, but with both, it is a solid 66. In this case, not only PCGS, but CAC agreed.

    MNcoinman is back, but he missed a couple. Several other flip-flops, but Duke remains solidly in the lead.

    Both right , needed that to even stay anywhere near Duke . I was worried about the 22-D almost went 65 on it . Dick so that shoulder hit doesn't look as bad in hand ?

    Well....at least it got CAC. PCGS just being too tough with the 67 grades.

    It is there for sure, but it is not deep enough to be that distracting. And, that shoulder is not that critical.
