I submitted them regular service, a step up from economy and normally 15 days. Like I said it's been 25 days. I called PCGS and they told me there...
The thing that I noticed that looked most "off" to me is the dentils separated from the rim across the top of the obverse. I deal with trade...

No. I got hit for saying it was a "high grade example." I never said it was "not cleaned." Anyway, I was shocked at how high it went. I was...
