Cross a spectacular rarity in NGC plastic for a lower grade with PCGS? A good friend, and widely regarded dealer of bust halves and early silver (Sheridan Downey), recently crossed his wonderful NGC MS61 1815/2 CBH to PCGS AU58. It sold at Central States for $34k, many $thousands over price guides. Again, why would someone do this? Check out some of the finest registry sets at NGC. The very best. (Not talking moderns.)
