Yes, and the seller discloses such in his listing. He is a well known peddler of AT coins on E-Bay. PS: Nice Avatar!
Either way, it tells me that grading is subjective and that even within the TPG's there is a divide about what separates AU from MS.
Yes, I did. Why don't you stop beating around the bush and tell us why you think your nickel is special.
