[QUOTE="TRVST, post: 29575, member: 1939"]I'm a little confused about this post. I'm not good at grading incuse designs but can't see what's wrong with this coin.

If the seller wants to use poor scans then that should be his/her problem. However, I don't see why this coin couldn't be an MS-63. The planchet looks good for the quality of the scan.

I didn't see any sign that he/she is selling counterfeit coins. I looked at their sales record for the last month and saw a few trade dollars sold as AU and BU and they looked legit. I guess I'm just curious at the negativity. And no, I am not the seller. :) Edited to add: It looks like it sold for just over AU price by the PCGS price guide... so I guess everyone else was seeing what I did not. :)[/QUOTE]
