And... what did these people supposedly say?

I'm sorry, Louis, but the recent photos (thanks BTW) do not leave me optimistic.

I'll take your word for it, but please be sure to update us once you've submitted the coin and have it back in your hands. If anything, it would be a fine and appreciated addition to an older thread.

No mintage records are known to state exactly how many of these 1875 Dot Reverse Indian Cents, classified as “Snow-16” or “S16,” were struck. However, very few specimens have been accounted for and may presently number only a few dozen pieces. PCGS has graded several circulated and uncirculated specimens, with the finest PCGS-graded example receiving a grade of MS65+RD. Sales information is also spotty on this rare, scarcely traded but sought-after variety. Among the coin’s notable auction appearances in recent years is the sale of a PCGS MS64RB specimen that took $2,585 in a March 2015 Stack’s-Bowers auction and a PCGS MS64+RD that realized $4,080 at another Stack’s-Bowers sale in March 2018.
