LOVEEEE IT! The obverse almost seems proof-like...MS-66RD

 

67

 

I`ll go with MS 66

 

almost went 67, but the O in one detracts and theres quite a nick on the forehead, so 66

 

65n1.. and don't like giving it the n1.

 

I don't either, looks like a 5 to me but NGC is unpredictable from 5 to 7.

 

Luster looks delicious, but not good enough to make up for all of the ticks and taps and still make 67. I guessed 66.

 

Went 66 but it should not be more then a 65 from that large hit in the obv field IMO.
Love the luster.

 

i really do like this number....66!

 

Luster for 66 .

 

Double 6 from me.

 

This and http://www.cointalk.com/t225800/ will be ending tonight.

 

That is a pretty good nick Abe is looking at, but that is about it for the nicks. The luster is sure there and there is nothing wrong with the strike. That is a 66 to me and NGC agrees with this one.

 

All those looking forward to moving up must be disappointed. We lost one from the top, but Duke filled in his exact spot. The standing pretty much remained with some minor flipping in 6 - 9.

Congrats Duke !!!!! It was only a matter of time till you got your spot back . Dang me , I'm back to 1 right and one off by one . But I'm blaming this one on PCGS . lol

 

Just out of curiosity, how does the ranking system work? It appears to me that the higher avg correct is on the bottom at 10th.

 

It is the average number of grades you have missed the given grade by. (63 VS. 62 or 40 VS. 45 both = 1)

This is a rolling average of the last 50 rounds. You must have 20 round to be included. At round 20 (of the latest 50), you highest score is dropped from your average and you second highest score is dropped when you exceed 30. The only purpose of these is to help people learn grading and to have fun.

 

Dick can explain the finer points on how it works . But the lower your score the better . Like if you get both right you'd get a .0 . If you got 1 right and missed the other by 1 pt. you'd get the 1 point you missed by divided by 2 or .500 .

 

Alright, I had it backwards. Thanks to both of you!
