<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Mike Thorne, post: 4526005, member: 56869&quot;]I submitted it to ANACS back when they didn&#039;t put it in a slab, just sent you a picture of the coin&#039;s obverse and reverse with the grade assigned to each separately. I didn&#039;t necessarily think the coin was a 66PL, just that it was better than a 63. Years before, I had submitted a large cent to ANACS that I had bought as a 64, raw, of course. Back it came with a grade of AU55. I don&#039;t think AU58 had been &quot;invented&quot; yet. Anyway, I sent it back and asked the graders to tell me where the wear was, that I couldn&#039;t see any. Back it came from ANACS with the grade of MS60!</p><p>The coin was remarkably clean, so if it was unc it had to be higher than 60. More time went by, and I sent it to PCGS. This time the grade was MS64 BN, which was the grade the seller had told me it was. There&#039;s more to that story, but I&#039;ll quit here. On the 83-CC, a more realistic grade of MS65PL might have gotten it a Green Bean.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
