I just got this back from NGC. I have no real information about it other than what is listed on the insert. I picked it up at the NYINC show...
The average grade is a 69 with maybe 20% grading higher or lower. The reason you only see most of these coins in 69 or 70 slabs is because the...
I suspect that he is thinking about the Micro O Morgan dollars that escaped detection by PCGS for about 20 years.

CAC does not sticker "PQ" coins as the marketplace understands PQ, but rather they sticker coins that are average for the grade. In your example,...
