<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ddddd, post: 11885209, member: 22377&quot;]Luckily I was not the one who got the QC on the Isabella. I bought it in that slab, cracked it, and got the straight grade. So this was a nice win. I have been stubborn on a few coins. My worst case was subbing a toned Franklin 4 times because it kept getting different results: AU 55 (too low) -&gt; MS 62 (still thought it was low) -&gt; Unc Details damaged (that was even worse) -&gt; MS 62 (here I gave up since it was back in a straight graded holder). I also had a toned Morgan that went details two times (two different reasons) that I did sell. If someone manages to get that one into a straight graded holder, they will do really well. So yes there are some wins and some losses (and yes the losses sting a little more but we should remind ourselves of the wins more often).</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>The Peacock has multiple varieties and at one point I wanted to collect them all. The issue is some rarely show up for sale and when they do, they can be very expensive. I saw CRO post a potentially unique silver version. The price was 4,975!</p><p><br /></p><p>Link to CU thread about this silver one:</p><p><a href="https://forums.collectors.com/discussion/1038287/my-great-and-terrible-track-record-at-cro-extended-once-again" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://forums.collectors.com/discussion/1038287/my-great-and-terrible-track-record-at-cro-extended-once-again" rel="nofollow">https://forums.collectors.com/discussion/1038287/my-great-and-terrible-track-record-at-cro-extended-once-again</a></p><p><br /></p><p>I did manage to find the same M21 as yours on eBay last year. I was shocked that I won it for less than I paid for the AU 58! I had a modest placeholder bid.
