Welcome to the neighborhood @biblecoinguy ! Beautiful coin! Chris
Is it graded PF65 or are you quoting that because the Red Book only goes to PF65? The best way to photograph a rotated die is to place it in a...

@Jeff Beatty Nice finds! Fred Weinberg has five of them listed and graded by PCGS....
A couple thousand per year? Two-tenths of one percent over 28 years or so would be about 430 per year. Let's be skeptical and say 1,000 errors per...
Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I think that NGC & PCGS, together, have graded about 60 million coins. What do you think would be an...
