Now, I'm not one to play the crack-out-and-resubmit game, but as well as CACG did for me on other submissions, I was not happy with this one. It's my first coin that I'm actually going forward with breaking free from captivity solely to resubmit. Here's one of a handful of coins going in, but the only one [hopefully] destined for an upgrade. 1883 V Nickel with cents. I feel that CACG did me dirty on this coin, grading it as a MS61. I'm not entirely sure still, but I'm leaning towards submitting this as a proof coin, JD-1 variety. From what I've seen so far, the doubling inside the bottom loop of the 3 is a pup for this variety. And there's clear die polishing lines that go underneath the devices, as well as highly reflective fields. I'm just crossing my fingers that I didn't goof by cutting this out. Typically, whenever I free a coin from a holder, it's specifically for my 7070. At least if it comes back body-bagged, I'll have an upgrade coin for my type set. But this time is different... I want to get more eyes on this, and see what the next TPG says. Wish me luck!
