How is this possible? 2021-W $1 Burnished Silver Eagle-Type 2 Emily S. Damstra 600 of 600 69 graded.

Goldbully

Emily is an Artistic Infusion Program Designer and does not deserve this fate.

However her First Strike Emily S. Damstra and First Strike Damstra got 100% 70's.

How does this happen?

Any modern guys know what gives?

Easy. Min grade of 70

CopperWire

that is a clerical error

There's other labels with her name. Perhaps she just worked out a deal to put that label on the 69s and the other label on the 70s

I'm going to guess the 69 should go on the line with the 70s

Nope...The 70's are First Strikes and the 69's are not first strike.
This is how the label game is played to make common coins seem rare by making their own line in the population reports.

It is not her; it is whoever she is signing for that make up how the coins are slabbed.

I see nothing too unusual here at all.

My goodness, the one thing we all don't need is another label.
