I am not too sure just what to say about this coin. First off, the 2 "spots" are actually some kind of rub. The luster is good, the strike is great and there really are not that many marks on the coin. I have no idea why this coin only got a 65. I agree with the majority of you and should call this one a 66.
Just about everyone lost ground here except Shoewrecky who sat this round out and Animosity. Both moved up significantly. Top 10. Columns are rank, name, average, and number of guesses. ldhair 0.313 34 Shoewrecky 0.382 36 Leadfoot 0.390 43 Duke Kavanaugh 0.405 39 mark_h 0.468 49 rzage 0.486 39 Animosity 0.520 27 jallengomez 0.545 24 BadThad 0.553 40 bahabully 0.571 44
Darn. I missed both of those. Should have known PCGS would be tough of the spots but thought the great luster would keep it at 66. Nice coin.
Come on PCGS...that's crazy...one of their example coins. I figured those obverse "spots" were just where the metal was extra shinny. You see that every once in awhile, I think you know what I mean, they're like mirror spots.
So did I , I thought this coin could go 67 + still it should have gone 66 at the least . But that's what they want , people to resubmit them .
