[QUOTE="lkeigwin, post: 1184402, member: 30400"]Today's challenge deals with copper grades and color. Here are six Indian Head Cents. They are all business strike (no proofs) and have been graded by PCGS as 65RD, 65RB, 64RD, 64RB, and 63RB. The wild card here is that one has been "genuined" by PCGS for questionable color. The years are 1873, 1876, 1899, 1903, 1905, 1906. Can you associate the grades with the coins? (Note: All coins started out raw, and all ended up in PCGS holders. Some images were merely taken before grading/slabbing. FWIW.) Put them in this order, highest grade to lowest. 65RD 65RB 64RD 64RB 63RB Genuine (questionable color) Forum members did very well on the Peace dollars, 1920s Lincolns, and 1878 silver dollars. Let's see how everyone does this time. Answers in a few days. Lance.
