PCGS graded Indian Cent

[prudden]

This might be a hard one.

 

[relicsncoins]

I'll go 64BN.

[L1ncolnF4n]

63BN, looks like a mark in the headdress?

[James_OldeTowne]

Yikes, my gut reaction is AU-55 ! Are we seeing a lot of scratches and smudges in this image?

[BillJones]

It is not really possible to grade the coin from this photo. It's coming up cloudy on my screen, and that makes hard to see the luster if there is any.

 

From what I can see, I'd give it no more than an MS-64, brown. It could go as low as MS-61 or 62 slab grade if there is a rub on the cheek.

[prudden]

Hmm,you're right.The pictures aren't that good.Some of it is the condition of the slab.It's an original dot matrix green paper label slab and it's scratched and a little hazy.And the luster didn't come out at all in these photos The white spot you see on the feathers was on the slab. Anyway,you guys are way off what the label says.But that['s only half what I'm looking for,right?I'll let it go for a little while yet.

 

These photos are the same except I used "AUTOFIX" at the photobucket site.It seems to have added luster and some red.

 

[relicsncoins]

Way off on color or grade? If the coin was stored in a poor enviroment it could've changed in that old slab. I'll guess the label says 64RD.

PF65RB.

pcgs rattler holder au 58

[Coindude]

Not a proof, but I'll be it may have once been an RB, but it's definitely a BN now. I'll say 63.

[$ilverHawk]

I don't know about the holder. But I say AU58BN. I see some rub on the high points on the obverse. Fairly sharp reverse.

[prudden]

I gotta say I am not surprised by your answers.The first set of pictures aren't that far off except for some luster on the obverse when tilted toweards light. I think one poster may have had inside info? I believe this one may need to be looked at by PCGS under the guarantee.Would you send this on for the pcgs?"Guarantee Resubmission".Can you believe this?

 

[MarkFeld]

Based on the images, the coin is no longer RB, and you should at least be able to get the difference in value between a RB and a BN from PCGS. Also, I wouldn't have known it was a Proof, though, presumably/hopefully, it would be obvious in person.

Hey Mark,

Not obvious it is proof.The rims and denticles are exactly as they look in the picture. The fields are good and devices except,did anyone notice he U in United?

[L1ncolnF4n]

I don't believe PCGS will refund color differences in cents. They will adjust the color, but unless they change the numeric grade I think you're out of luck getting anything from PCGS.

[HiHoAudio]

I'll say MS64, and that PCGS holder has seen way too many coin shows.

 

(Egad, late again...)

[robec1347]

Nice call Dean. You should be awarded some sort of prize for being the only one recognizing it as a proof.

[erwindoc]

I sure wouldnt crack it out and try and resubmit it! I would disagree with the holder on that one.
