So, until I get new lights. Yes, it is Yellow, more so than in hand. But, I think I got through the scratches, on the slab, still keeping a true view of the coin. If You know the holder then you will get the grade, scratch on the neck and bust is on the slab. By the way my favorite reverse of the Statehood Quarters. This is a 2 1/2 point grade the 1/2 Is the like button. Lol
MS67, preferably MS68, should have been the minimum grade to make grading cost effective. Your coin won't even come close to that grade. Chris
sure, unless it is a very high grade the person who had it slabbed lost a lot of money. With the marks all over it, it shouldn't be higher than 63, at best.
I'm thinking 63 or 64, unless all those marks are on the slab. Your "buy the coin not the slab" comment means they probably blew it and called it something crazy like 67.
Counted them 4, If I had to give this a grade on ANA standards it would be a 64 in hand. Taking in to account the MDS.
