<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Numismat, post: 2208356, member: 15019&quot;]Not too long ago I posted about having won an auction and being sent the wrong coin. Well that has been cleared up, and the coin is better than I expected.</p><p><br /></p><p>It was in an old PCI holder graded as MS-65</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i267.photobucket.com/albums/ii314/Numismat/88645E4A-B82B-4B0A-B455-B7C8F0BE3213.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Now that I have freed it from it&#039;s tomb, I strongly feel it was under-graded, possibly more than just one point.</p><p><br /></p><p>The devices and fields are much cleaner than all the other 65&#039;s I&#039;ve been looking at. It has hardly any marks on it at all, full strike and BU luster. I was comparing to high resolution pics of a handful of slabbed 66&#039;s and 67&#039;s in the Heritage auction archives. This coin is cleaner than some of the 66 graded coins (though I can&#039;t ignore the possibility that some contact marks I&#039;m seeing are on the plastic slabs).</p><p><br /></p><p>But this coin does look to me very close or even on par with some 67 ones.</p><p><br /></p><p>What do you guys think?</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i267.photobucket.com/albums/ii314/Numismat/E941320F-09DD-4106-BDC5-7434F355A737.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i267.photobucket.com/albums/ii314/Numismat/E7030593-8DC9-4614-A003-1684D78D16C6.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Side note: that PCI slab was kind of cool because you can see the difference between the blast white coin that went in and the toning that formed by the time it came out. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
