Toning does not prevent a coin from being graded a 70.
They are probably talking about the Micro O's. There were 3 dates, can't recall 'em off the top of my head, but for years NGC refused to slab them...
Yes, some do deserve to be graded 70.
Unh huh - but, if you look it up in their grading standards it will say - as close to perfect as it can get - or words to that effect. Even the...
Based on what you posted Matt, that one changed in the slab. So I'd have to say that doesn't count.

He was using it as a comparison coin.
Maybe - but I'm the best lookin ;)
ROTFL !! I love it !!
Along those lines - a group of well known names, including Bowers, Bressett, Garrett (and another that I cannot recall) have been searching known...
