That was my thought for this coin that if it gets a PO-01 grade and if it&#039;s a straight grade, then the price could spike. Maybe it&#039;s wishful thinking, so that&#039;s why I made the post to see if the darker toning could disqualify it for a straight grade although I do think it&#039;s a candidate for PO-01.&nbsp; Thoughts?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
