Is it April 1st already?
What you call pretentious, I call an expert opinion. The fact is that coins exist with high point friction that have never been in circulation....
Make him file a SNAD and hope you win. If you are not a big E-Bay seller, the negative feedback won't hurt you much and it only lasts for 1 year.
My first impression was MS64 PL, but that was in part due to the planchet flaw below the D. Heck with it, I'm sticking with my first instinct,...

No doubt that you are not most people, only Doug is as rigid and unyielding as you, slaves to a world of black and white, determined with all your...
You have alluded that the 39-D that you have in a folder is a high grade example, MS66? MS67? When you say folder, I am hoping you mean album,...
