<p>[QUOTE=&quot;NorthKorea, post: 1706994, member: 29643&quot;]So, I finally got the grades back on my submission from 16 April on the PCGS Secure Plus grading. I put my expected grades in red.</p><p><br /></p><p>Disappointed, and pleased at the same time. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>1995 w $1 Eagle PF68DC <span style="color: #ff0000">PF69</span></p><p><a href="http://images.pcgs.com/SecurePlus/27510799_large.jpg" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://images.pcgs.com/SecurePlus/27510799_large.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://images.pcgs.com/SecurePlus/27510799_max.jpg</a></p><p><br /></p><p>1941 s 50c MS65 (s/s) <span style="color: #ff0000">AU55-</span><span style="color: #ff0000"></span></p><p><span style="color: #ff0000"></span><a href="http://images.pcgs.com/SecurePlus/27510803_large.jpg" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://images.pcgs.com/SecurePlus/27510803_large.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://images.pcgs.com/SecurePlus/27510803_max.jpg</a><span style="color: #ff0000"></span></p><p><span style="color: #ff0000"></span><a href="http://images.pcgs.com/CoinFacts/27510803_large.jpg" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://images.pcgs.com/CoinFacts/27510803_large.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://images.pcgs.com/CoinFacts/27510803_max.jpg</a></p><p><br /></p><p>1979 p $1 MS65 (Wide Rim) <span style="color: #ff0000">MS63</span></p><p><a href="http://images.pcgs.com/SecurePlus/27510798_large.jpg" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://images.pcgs.com/SecurePlus/27510798_large.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://images.pcgs.com/SecurePlus/27510798_max.jpg</a></p><p><br /></p><p>1980 Marian Anderson MS65 <span style="color: #ff0000">MS63</span></p><p><span style="color: #ff0000"></span><a href="http://images.pcgs.com/SecurePlus/27510800_large.jpg" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://images.pcgs.com/SecurePlus/27510800_large.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://images.pcgs.com/SecurePlus/27510800_max.jpg</a></p><p><a href="http://images.pcgs.com/CoinFacts/27510800_large.jpg" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://images.pcgs.com/CoinFacts/27510800_large.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://images.pcgs.com/CoinFacts/27510800_max.jpg</a></p><p><br /></p><p>1885 cc $1 MS65 <span style="color: #ff0000">MS63+ (GSA)</span></p><p><span style="color: #ff0000"></span><a href="http://images.pcgs.com/SecurePlus/27510801_large.jpg" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://images.pcgs.com/SecurePlus/27510801_large.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://images.pcgs.com/SecurePlus/27510801_max.jpg</a></p><p><br /></p><p>1974 d 50c (DDO) MS64 <span style="color: #ff0000">*I didn&#039;t actually think about the grade when submitting.*</span></p><p><a href="http://images.pcgs.com/SecurePlus/27510796_large.jpg" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://images.pcgs.com/SecurePlus/27510796_large.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://images.pcgs.com/SecurePlus/27510796_max.jpg</a></p><p><br /></p><p>1884 cc $1 MS63 <span style="color: #ff0000">MS62 (GSA)</span></p><p><a href="http://images.pcgs.com/SecurePlus/27510802_large.jpg" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://images.pcgs.com/SecurePlus/27510802_large.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://images.pcgs.com/SecurePlus/27510802_max.jpg</a></p><p><br /></p><p>1899 o $1 AU Details (Micro-o) <span style="color: #ff0000">XF40-XF45 Details</span></p><p><a href="http://images.pcgs.com/SecurePlus/27510797_large.jpg" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://images.pcgs.com/SecurePlus/27510797_large.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://images.pcgs.com/SecurePlus/27510797_max.jpg</a></p><p><br /></p><p>Now for my complete lack of grading expertise...</p><p><br /></p><p>I was hoping for a PF70 on the ASE. I expected a PF69, but now I see a big scratch and prints that I don&#039;t remember being there when subbed.</p><p><br /></p><p>I *really* have no idea of how to grade Walkers. The AU55- means I thought it was a AU54/55 slider. If the s/s is an MS65, I think it might behoove me to submit a few more of the Walkers that I have. All this time, I thought they were AU because the knee looks &quot;worn&quot; to me. I guess they&#039;re just weakly struck.</p><p><br /></p><p>The CCs were both heavily marked. I just figured the 85 had less in the fields. That&#039;s why I had assumed 64 or better. I guess 65 is better. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>The Kennedy... I was just happy it was a DDO, so I subbed it just to have it verified. It&#039;s the first DDO that I found that looked like a DDO and not shelving.</p><p><br /></p><p>The Postal Gold is ugly. I submitted it on the sole basis that it was the LEAST ugly one that I had.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m disappointed and ecstatic at the same time with the 1899. Originally, I wasn&#039;t going to submit it, because I really thought it might get body bagged (cleaned), but then I thought &quot;Meh... details grade can&#039;t be THAT bad.&quot; I would have preferred the XF40 to the AU Details. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie7" alt=":p" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Edit: Hopefully this came out.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
