<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Mac McDonald, post: 7944710, member: 117420&quot;]There are exceptions and there are exceptions...and this is such. It took my breath away when I laid eyes on it in the photos, even with its initially inconspicuous faults, and I suspect it did similar even for the graders when first in their hands...human beings/not robots...to an extent that couldn&#039;t be overcome in the final analysis. Besides...and this is why I&#039;m not too upset...&quot;what goes around comes around&quot; as is said, and maybe this somehow to a small extent makes up for the many decent and legitimately deserving (of a straight and/or higher grade) coins relegated to the virtually worthless &quot;details&quot; slabs for such as invisible wheel marks and other all-too-nit-picky reasons/&quot;flaws.&quot; I dunno...just a wild theory...coins slide for all sorts of reasons.&nbsp; Plus, in any auction people can/do get carried away with winning at any cost...forgetting the coin...and so someone paid it.&nbsp; It happened to me too many times on a much smaller scale, and then later, on closer exam including buyer&#039;s remorse, I wonder why I paid what I paid.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
