<p>[QUOTE=&quot;johnmilton, post: 6177373, member: 101855&quot;]For the MS-65 grade, this might be an outlier. The services are usually quite strict when it comes to MS-65 or higher for something that is really rare in that grade. This coin is among the finest known for the Sheldon variety, but not among the VERY FINEST KNOWN for that Sheldon number. Noyes rates it as # 11 or # 12. Putting MS-65 on it is a bit of sticking your neck out. That means you have to call the best one MS-67 or 68. Early large cents almost don&#039;t exist in those grades. </p><p><br /></p><p>For lower grades, it can be another story. I have seen some very disappointing scarce coins in low end Mint State and AU holders.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
