[QUOTE="clembo, post: 332630, member: 8033"]I understood your point in the first post Mark. Now please try and understand mine. Yes, I am familiar with the Sheldon scale which is applied to both MS coins and PR coins. I've also garnered from reading your past posts and your background that you are a "coin in hand" person. So far we agree totally. My "crooked" point harkens back to the "ebay land of the uninformed" comment I made. You have a lot of people looking at the Redbook etc for coin "values". In many cases an MS65 is worth more than a PR65. A "knowledgeable" dealer uses MS65Proof? So which "value" is the potential bidder going to look at? I don't share your pedigree but I have been at this for quite some time. I can honestly tell you that I have NEVER seen a coin marked like this. I, personally, would make the mistake one way or the other but not both as it IS only one or the other. clembo[/QUOTE]
