<p>[QUOTE=&quot;jtlee321, post: 3213189, member: 73983&quot;]I hate to say it, but today I came across a more recently graded 1884-CC Morgan Dollar that was graded MS-65 by ICG.&nbsp; I was floored at how clean the surfaces of the coin was.&nbsp; But looking at it, it had the tell tale signs of being messed with.&nbsp; I used my higher powered loupe and examined the coin closer and noticed that indeed the fields had been altered.&nbsp; The luster looked off and weak for how clean it appeared.&nbsp; Had it not been messed with and had full luster it would have been a 67 shot 68.&nbsp; I think they quietly net graded it a 65.&nbsp; Not sure if they did it because they thought it was altered surfaces (yet barely noticeable) or if they simply thought the luster was muted (and did not catch the problem).&nbsp; Either way it would never make it through PCGS with a straight grade and should never have made it through ICG.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
