You're wrong again, except for the open forum part. By that, I'll comment as I see fit as long as it PERTAINS TO THE QUESTION and is helpful....
Then don't comment. The OP's question didn't ask what type of collector you are. Putting the OP down because he likes the toning by telling what...
Oh yea, that's nice! Have you figured which one it is yet?
Awesome! I kept staring at it trying to figure out what was going on. First I thought it was a hobo nickel, lol.
I would also love to this Ike dollar. Hope you can get the pictures loaded!!
I missed this one too! Dag gone it! 66 for me, fwiw.
FUDGE!! So did I. Dang it. I would go 45.
Ah heck, just send it in since that's what you want to do, then we'll know. You only have to convince PCGS. No one here will slab it and give it...
I'm not sure if I do or not, LOL, I'll let you know on Saturday!
Those were the two reasons I went 65. The hits and chatter wouldn't have kept it from 66 IMO. I also think rzage is correct, at NGC this would...
Having a lot of trouble with this one. IMO, it all depends on how long ago it was graded. I don't think it was graded with the spots as...
Congratulations Leadfoot!

I would have to see additional photos for a proof. The lighting and angles of the lighting can make ALL the difference in the world. What I WILL...
So riff, with that said, did you determine approximate value?
George is 100% correct. As long as you're using the correct size, try stapling closer to the coin.
I will usually subtract at least a half grade for strong toning at PCGS.
I officially grade this coin WIWM. Wish it Was Mine.
If it's a 1972-S, then it's 40% silver. There were no Clad 1972-S Ike's produced.
I like that! Very nice indeed.
