The “experts” are falling all over themselves to find justifications the MS-65 grade and the CAC sticker. </p><p><br /></p><p>While it’s true that the coin is rare and the only example available to private collectors, it still has those gashes on the knee and numerous minor marks in the fields. As one dealer put it, “If I bought that piece as a bullion related ‘MS-65’, I would be quite disappointed.”[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
