<p>[QUOTE=&quot;legolas, post: 1173292, member: 30498&quot;]Before I tell you the Grade - please check out the Note from these un-retouched scans that I took.&nbsp; I was ecstatic when I received the Note because it was so pristine and is rather rare being a Tombstone and even more rare being a Tombstone with the ornate back:</p><p><br /></p><p style="text-align: center">[ATTACH]122070.vB[/ATTACH]<p style="text-align: left"><p style="text-align: center"><font size="6"><font size="3"><font size="2"><b>(click to Enlarge)</b></font></font></font></p> <p style="text-align: center"><br /></p></p> <p style="text-align: left"><font size="6"><font size="3"> <font size="2"><br /></font></font></font></p> <p style="text-align: left"><font size="6"><font size="3"><font size="2">OK, so - the PMG grade is <i>VF 25 with Minor Repairs</i>.&nbsp; I don&#039;t get it ??&nbsp; </font></font></font></p> <p style="text-align: left"><font size="6"><font size="3"><font size="2">In the first place I cannot find any repairs even using a jeweler&#039;s glass and scanning for 10 minutes.&nbsp; The seller also said he could not find any repairs (of course).&nbsp; Obviously there MUST be repairs but they are not visible.&nbsp; The note, to me, looks much better that a 25.&nbsp; There is one pinhole and NO visible folds.</font></font></font></p> <p style="text-align: left"><font size="6"><font size="3"><font size="2"><br /></font></font></font></p> <p style="text-align: left"><font size="6"><font size="3"><font size="2">I bought this with no Grade Holder then looked it up and to my surprise it was graded.&nbsp; So somewhere along the line, one of the previous owners removed it from the sleeve.&nbsp; I imagine he had the same shocked response to the Grade that I am having and just could not stand to leave this gorgeous Note inside of that &quot;25&quot; holder. Was it wrong to remove it?&nbsp; Probably but I can understand why.&nbsp; </font></font></font></p> <p style="text-align: left"><font size="6"><font size="3"><font size="2"><br /></font></font></font></p> <p style="text-align: left"><font size="6"><font size="3"><font size="2">But the Grade - what in the world is going on here !!</font></font></font></p> <p style="text-align: left"><font size="6"><font size="3"><font size="2"><br /></font></font></font></p> <p style="text-align: left"><font size="6"><font size="3"><font size="2">I want to keep this.&nbsp; Should I resubmit?&nbsp; Or does PMG rarely ever change a Grade ?&nbsp; I don&#039;t wanna waste $35 bucks.&nbsp; Even worse . . .
