I think it's a great coin and we all have seen less attractive coins in 64 or 64PL holders, right? ;-)
Well, if nothing else, this thread shows the inherent difficulties in grading AU or MS coins based solely on static photos. I look on GTG as fun, a game, not to be taken seriously.
That's what I was trying to do, sorry if I contributed to the somber tone. I just get a reaction when people act supercilious on a message board.
No worries. I don't think I've ever started a GTG thread, but if I did, I would just "let it ride" after I posted the assigned grade and watch the fun as folks opinionate, bloviate, pontificate, (insert favorite -ate), LOL
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I wasn't really thinking too clearly when I mentioned the 7/8! I was more concerned with sharing the correct reverse. The mm was not clearly in my mind. I'll go sit in the corner and have a time out.
