@Pickin and Grinin what did you think about your Kennedy (star worthy)? If anyone else wants to comment on it, please find the picture on page 30...
Some items, like FBL Franklins, NGC is definitely stricter. However, with Cameo Proofs coins, I don't really see one being clearly stricter than...
@Justin Lee was closest and can post the next coin. This was an interesting example as it was completely new for most of us. Sounds like you got a...
I've seen worse get straight graded at PCGS (and NGC). If someone sent it for a crossover, I could see it not crossing (but it would be hard to...
Once a coin has a straight grade, too many people look past the issues. The PLUS with STAR combo is especially a combo that draws a premium.
Summary: Rd. 1: 1955-S MS 64 1c (NO Star) --> Should it star? -->Yes: 2 vs No: 11 Rd. 2: 1885-O MS 65 $1 (NO Star) —>Should it star? —> Yes: 4 vs...

None of those. I would just say an inconsistency or lack of standards in the grading room. There really should be more training where all the...
Any other guesses?
I agree with @physics-fan3.14 for starting a new thread. It sounds like you have some interesting coins. The one with the staple scratch really...
No worries! We all learn something new on here. Here was the thread I put together that summarizes info about the Star (all of it came from...
I'll throw out a wild guess of $375
I'm not super surprised as I've seen some of these get by (although it was more common with PCGS in the last years compared to NGC). I will say...
That’s a beauty @Roman Collector Can you please give us a ballpark range for similar pieces so that we have a basis to guess the premium? I’m...
MS 63 is my guess...I don't think there is any wear and it looks clean...nice coin!
I find it interesting but would say NO STAR The spots are distracting and it does look like someone poured something on it (chemicals and/or heat...
You and @thomas mozzillo won the last round, so either were eligible. We can also open the floor to anyone who has something to post.
