[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 490815, member: 112"]OK - what are you missing ? You didn't miss it, but that planchet flaw should keep the coin at a 63 as best. Obv - many marks, perhaps the worst is under the eye, another in the eyebrow, several in the temple area and in front of the ear, small marks on the shoulder and coat. Appear to be some light scratches above and around the date. One in particular is horseshoe shaped above the 0. Numerous light contact marks all over. Rev - heavy contact mark between the N & T. Lighter contact marks in all the legends and letters. A vertical line of light marks under the F in OF. Several medium contact marks in the wheat stalks. Given what I have described I would say the coin is graded accurately. I definitely think the auction pics were misleading as they did not show what your pics show. This is a case of where you should have trusted that the slab was telling you something that you did not or could not see. ICG is given a bad rap in many cases, but they used to be quite good with non-moderns. That is no longer the case with the new company IMO.[/QUOTE]
