I have to agree that the luster is diminished. How can you tell it has been dipped and why wouldn't they bag an obviously dipped coin? Thanks
I was kind of thinking the same thing as the coin has a dulled out appearance. But, it could just be the photos. I have never really seen a coin graded by PCGS that had obviously been over dipped though.
new scans... Would the fact that it's a VAM perhaps make them overlook dipping? Here are two new pictures I just took...
It's possible I suppose. I would also think that the degree of over dipping might affect it. If it's only slight and being a VAM, they might. Does the coin appear to be lacking some luster in hand?
I just put it side by side with another 62 (88-O) and it is very similar in luster. The 88-O is also PCGS graded, but does have a tiny bit of toning going on which makes it more difficult to compare.
