<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Numis-addict, post: 1836259, member: 35784&quot;]I have a local dealer who feels very strongly about this. His justification is that he sent a recolored 1909s VDB cent to PCGS. It was very clearly an AU coin, but still a details coin. When he got the coin back, it was graded Good Details (or one of those low grades). He decided that the issue was that PCGS was trying to protect their Pop Tops, and then sent it to ICG. ICG graded the coin AU Details. I don&#039;t have any reason to doubt his story. I personally will probably never own a Pop Top coin anyway, so I don&#039;t have to worry about getting cut down in order to save the rarity of a piece, but it is an interesting anecdote.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
