<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Lehigh96, post: 3758905, member: 15309&quot;]I think they are graded correctly by PCGS and honestly, I would have been a little more harsh.</p><p><br /></p><p>1984-P:&nbsp; This coin has many tiny marks on both sides that give it a decidedly un-gemlike appearance.&nbsp; My grade for this coin would have been MS64+FS</p><p><br /></p><p>1997-D:&nbsp; This is the cream of the crop and has an amazing presence that usually accompanies an MS67 grade.&nbsp; Unfortunately, the marks on the coat collar and shoulder are grade limiting and I think that MS66 FS is the correct grade.</p><p><br /></p><p>1976-D:&nbsp; Again, the obverse has a ton of little imperfections that you don&#039;t normally see on gem coins.&nbsp; The reverse is solid MS66, but I think you were very fortunate to get an MS66 FS grade for this coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>1973-P:&nbsp; Not only does this coin have many small marks, it also has some more significant marks (eg in the hair above forehead, behind mouth, in field under chin).&nbsp; And I have no idea what that &quot;O&quot; is to the left of TY in LIBERTY.&nbsp; The toning is very nice and carries the coin a little, but this is another coin fortunate to grade MS65.&nbsp; The mark on the steps below the 3rd pillar is severe enough to preclude a full step designation.&nbsp; I would grade this coin MS64.</p><p><br /></p><p>1981-D:&nbsp; The swirling die polish on reverse is very cool and I agree with the MS66 FS grade for this coin.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
