So some coins certified by the major services are overgraded. Is that news? Kinda wonder about the CAC sticker, though.
61 or 62 and not worth having certified.
I guess I deserved that response, SmokinJoe. Truth be told, what I would do with it is throw it in one of my various stashes of essentially...
If it were mine, I would spend it.

I had a part-time mail order coin business for a decade in the late 70s/early 80s. It was a lot of fun and enabled me to write off several trips...

When thinking about sending something to a certification service, you need to keep in mind what it would be worth in different grades. For most...
