<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ToughCOINS, post: 13633575, member: 20480&quot;]Thanks for the side-by-sides, [USER=93371]@Jack D. Young[/USER] .&nbsp; You definitely have me second-guessing myself.&nbsp; I thought the subject coin looked very &quot;helped&quot; when I spotted it, and now am somewhat less sure. </p><p><br /></p><p>The lack of blending and the uniformity of width of many recessed areas on the subject coin still defy my expectations of natural wear, and my suspicion remains.&nbsp; Perhaps it&#039;s the lighting, as the angles of incidence are slightly different in the two sets of images. I just went back to see if I could buy the coin for study and conclusion, but it&#039;s been de-listed. </p><p><br /></p><p>I realize both PCGS and DLRC have had the benefit of examining this coin in-hand, so I&#039;ll take my medicine and, lacking the same opportunity, call this one a false-alarm.</p><p><br /></p><p>Sorry folks . . . too quick on the draw.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
