[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 8291764, member: 112"]Well the number of contact marks on the obv and rev both would preclude a 69 all by themselves. And the wear in the usual places - breast and left leg, and a bit in the fields - mean it's not even MS. Of course PCGS says, and says it in writing, that wear doesn't count. That coins with wear like that can be graded as high as MS67 - but no higher. But since they gave it a 69 that kind of proves they don't even listen to themselves anymore.
