Message:: [QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 585033, member: 112"]You are talking about two entirely different things. The grade assigned, whether it be 66, 65 or 62 for that matter - has absolutely nothing to do with the FBL designation. The special designation, FBL, is entirely separate from the grade of the coin. I gather that what you are trying to explain is that you would prefer to send the coin to PCGS because you think they are tougher on grading the Frankies - thus you feel they would give the coin a 65; while you think NGC would give the coin a 66. You also apparently think PCGS would give the coin an FBL designation and feel that NGC would not. Well, I don't think either TPG would assign an FBL. Neither do I think either of them would give the coin a 65, let alone a 66. I think both would grade the coin as MS64.[/QUOTE]
