<p>[QUOTE=&quot;DW-coins, post: 1331283, member: 33380&quot;]Yes, it&#039;s in a PCGS &quot;genuine&quot; slab and cited for environmental damage. However after showing the coin to Gerry Fortin I&#039;ve learned that PCGS has a difficult time with this variety. Apparently he has had a large number of these coming back with ED. It is well known that the dies were heavily damaged and for whatever reason PCGS isn&#039;t taking this into account when grading. Last I heard from Gerry he was going to have a conversation with Willis (or maybe Hall, can&#039;t remember) asking him to inform their graders about the advanced state of die degradation this variety stems from and how this may easily be mistaken as ED. My guess is the coin is somewhere between a VF to EF and I&#039;m considering submitting it to NGC at the up-coming Long Beach show. I&#039;ve a stack of GSA&#039;s ready for submission and thinking I&#039;d just piggy back it with the rest of the coins.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
