<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Michael Scarn, post: 3211917, member: 94715&quot;]Thanks for the suggestion, but I try to look at all dates and understand that most years a mushy strike is as best as can be expected (with exceptions for 1917, 1921, and maybe one or two others). I love sharply struck coins, which makes my preference for SLQs Nd Peace Dollars very frustrating. </p><p><br /></p><p>That said, the pattern of the missing inner shield details (ie the shape, location, and size of the weak spots) and the sharp contrast of what appear to be very sharp inner shield verical line details next to totally flat areas seemed odd to me and similar to some wear patterns on AU pieces of that year I have seen (usually the whole inner shield area will tend to be lacking details on a weak strike, no?, but look at the sharp). Maybe it&#039;s the toning playing tricks with my eyes and making the vertical lines clearer than they are in reality. In any event, I&#039;m not conceited enough to think that my opinion from a couple photos is more valid than 3 PCGS graders; it just looks a bit shy of a 64 to my (admittedly amateur) eye. </p><p><br /></p><p>Good luck with the grade if/when you resubmit.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
