    Nah it looks correctly graded to me.

    You might even end up getting a worse grade like PF63RB or maybe even BN if the grader is having a bad day.

    It's a gamble to re-grade it and you can lose much more money than you would gain if it were higher. It's worth about $4.5k right now at MS64, but MS63 it's worth about $1.7k. A grade higher and it would be worth $2k more. I don't think it's worth it.

    Have CAC look at it. A small price to pay.

    I just posted a GTG on the Coin and everybody said 65 and up the only person who 64 has seen the actual listing

    I find it very interesting that people are guessing the grade at high but thinking it’s too much of a risk to crack out

    It’s a proof coin and I don’t think the price guide is that important ;-)

    @delila1 No, I wouldn’t crack it out. I am with wxcoin and would submit it to CAC.

    One problem with guessing the grade using sellers photos is that the coin in hand may show blemishes that aren't in the photos. People selling a coin tend to find the best lighting/filters to make their coin look best. Last fall I posted some images I took of a couple raw proof Seated Liberty coins I was sending to PCGS for grading. I asked for peoples opinions and in general the numeric value was a point higher than what I got. Only one member suggested the coin could get a deep cameo grade, which it did (this member is probably one of the most knowledgeable and experienced). The quarter definitely had fine die polish lines in the obverse fields which kept the numeric grade lower (64). However, the PCGS True View images don't show any of the die polish lines.

    I also wanted to add that in today's market, a green CAC bean would boost the price you'd get, if you were to flip it right away, probably by at least 20% over what you bought the coin for; in my opinio.

    I didn't weigh in on the coin, but I don't see any way it could be a 66. I doubt even 65, though the TPGs seem to grade a lot of coins any way they feel like, no matter what their "official standards" may be. I think people need to buy coins at the price they like for THAT SPECIFIC COIN and not worry so much about what the great TPG gods think.

    Heck, the same grader can grade the same coin differently on a different day. A very highly respected pro once told me that you want him to grade your coins the morning after he got lucky and not after he had a bad night bowling.

    Technically that's a gem Proof. For the market, that big blue spot coming off the kisser is an eye-magnet, throwing off the eye-movement. And market grading is about eyes, not as much technicalities.

    Can't it be submitted in-holder for a re-grade without risk...? If it won't grade higher they will leave it in holder and return it (minus grading fee of course)...? Thought there was an option like this...pretty sure used to be but maybe no longer...with one or both of the top TPGs but haven't been active with grading for a while plus getting older/distant in the mind :woot:.

    Not sure w/ NGC but believe PCGS calls it a reconsideration service or something?

    I guess I'd be a bad grader then. I don't get lucky anymore and my bowling sucks lately!
