[QUOTE="gbroke, post: 1951053, member: 22585"]I know those of who who were in the GTG contest have seen these, but I thought I would share with the rest of the class. I had another terrible PCGS submission. I knew some in my submission may be body bagged, but overall I was shocked and extremely disappointed. I think the grader must have been in a bad mood. I am not, in anyway, an expert in grading. I have shared my opinion on each coin and look forward to hearing yours. [B][U][COLOR=#336600]1920 Standing Liberty Quarter[/COLOR][/U][/B] UNC Details - Questionable color. I knew this had a chance at QC, but I was definitely leaning toward acceptable. *I do not feel this was in anyway artificially toned, just not market acceptable.
