<p>[QUOTE=&quot;geekpryde, post: 3728499, member: 36248&quot;]The coin actually has fantasic luster, I think my coin pics show that, but perhaps it doesnt come through. Sometimes hard for me to judge my own photography.&nbsp; The black spot you mention, while not ideal, is not for me a major negative.&nbsp; The much more &quot;orginal&quot; looking Walkers, with light or moderate pleasant toning &gt; blast white dipped coins (which I also own/owned).&nbsp;&nbsp; I believe the luster combined with very minimal hits, made this coin a 65 in the eyes of some, including me.&nbsp; For others, such as yourself, the &quot;spot of death&quot; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie7" alt=":p" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> is a dealbreaker.</p><p><br /></p><p>The other reason why I posted these &quot;slab&quot; pictures, as opposed to my close up &quot;coin&quot; pictures, was this thread is about the slabs more than the coins.&nbsp;&nbsp; If we wanted to actually grade the coin, these are NOT the pics you want to use.</p><p><br /></p><p>This thread also really wasn&#039;t about CAC at all, I mentioned it as sort of a third party to a third party to show that through my many submissions with NGC fatties, CAC for the most part agreed with the holder grade.&nbsp; Meaning, the coins still lovingly housed in old holders are probably not undergraded.&nbsp;&nbsp; I posted the 42 WLH just to show a coin CAC thought WAS undergraded.&nbsp;&nbsp; But per my original post, most all of them were green stickers such as this one, and probably accurately graded my modern TPG/CAC thinking:</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]999717[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]999716[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Hope I haven&#039;t completely derailed this.&nbsp; One of the things fun about cointalk threads is that they take on a life of their own and often endup somewhere other than the OP intended. (both a good and bad thing).[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
