[QUOTE="Speedy, post: 141394, member: 705"]Roy While on many coins I would agree there were 2 things that came into my guess on this peice. The first thing is something Mike said... That is what I guessed--(the way I posted might not have been worded right---it might have sounded like I was agreeing with the grade given by PCGS)....mine and PCGS's grades aren't the same. BUT it seems that Ike Dollars are hard to grade IMHO---many times being a larger and heavier coin the coin will get more bag marks....nicks and such....I also was thinking that not many Ike Dollars seem to be well struck....I don't know if that is right or not but alot of the Ike Dollars I see seem to be missing some detail. If that is right then I can see it getting a higher grade---but if I'm just finding some bad coins and most Ike's are well struck then I would disagree with a high grade. All in all---more than likely I'm wrong---and I would be the first to say so..... Speedy[/QUOTE]
