that's one CLEAN coin. certainly looks good enough for a 67 grade (which is what I guessed). wonder what the edge looked like.
looking at this coin, I have no earthly idea why (outside the edge) this coin could grade less than 67. clean enough, lustrous enough, but who knows sometimes what PCGS is thinking in these grades, as 67s are stingy. we shall see this evening.
Interesting color. It really is orange with some bright red beginning to show and a real solid strike. Luster is not a problem and the only nicks I can find are the minute ones next to the left wheat. The rest of what you see are either on the slab or die scratches. Yes, PCGS called it a 67 and I don't see anything to tell me it is not a 67.
Not that ldhair did so well this time, but he did so poorly on GTG #273 and #274 - those are the rounds that dropped off since I am only averaging the latest 50 rounds. mark_h moved back in for the same reasoning. Top 10. Columns are rank, name, average, and number of guesses. ldhair 0.393 30 rzage 0.412 36 swhuck 0.438 50 BadThad 0.439 43 ddoomm1 0.442 45 bahabully 0.458 50 mark_h 0.500 46 Leadfoot 0.535 45 brg5658 0.538 28 jcakcoin 0.565 48
