<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Leadfoot, post: 139364, member: 2972&quot;]NGC graded the coin MS 62 RB.</p><p><br /></p><p>IMHO, NGC nailed the grade on this one.</p><p><br /></p><p>Here are my thought on the coin...The coin has absolutely no wear, and is correctly graded MS rather than a very nice AU as is often seen in low mS grades in TPG slabs.&nbsp; The obverse has a large area of discolored brown caused by being handled -- remnants of a palm/finger print are fairly apparent in the pictures and more apparent on the coin in hand.&nbsp; The cartwheen is impared on the obverse by the discoloration, but remains virtually complete on the reverse.&nbsp; Ther are numerous ticks and taps (perhaps &quot;keg marks&quot; from a hoard) on both sides and they are what limit the grade to 62.</p><p><br /></p><p>All in all this is a very attractive coin, but in the end I returned the coin as I was hoping for better cartwheel luster on the obverse.</p><p><br /></p><p>Take care and thanks for your comments...Mike</p><p><br /></p><p>p.s. Spider, what did I do to make you angry?&nbsp; Believe me it was not on purpose.&nbsp; :hug:[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
