<p>[QUOTE="MIGuy, post: 5143354, member: 116145"]That's ludicrous and offensive, as I believe was clear from my posting, I was excited because it looked like a 1916 to me - especially as to the drape of the dress / foot and the line on the left under Liberty's right arm. I didn't have much confidence in my ability to discern these things because I've only seen 1916s online in pictures, and it seemed so implausible that I would happen upon one, when there are so many folks out there who have a real eye for these things, unlike me. I was willing to pay for ICG to take a look because of my suspicions - and it turned out I was right.</p><p><br /></p><p>Please don't be petty, rude and / or jealous, my intention was not to gloat, and if it came across that way I apologize, I am just excited. I think anyone would be. Posts like yours make people sorry to share their successes. I like to celebrate other people's successes in general. Again, you're welcome to put your money where your mouth is - I'd be happy to submit my entire and complete (fine, I don't have the 17/18 overstrike, lol) SLQ set to PCGS and CAC on your dime if you think it's important to assess the veracity of the ICG graders. My understanding is that the 1916 would probably be worth an extra $500 in a PCGS case with a CAC sticker. I may eventually do that myself if I have the extra money and can figure out the PCGS submission process, but for now I'm not really worried about value, I am just excited to have a complete set - 2 1/2 years in the works.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
