    I just took that picture it's the same coin THE OP asked you to grade. Did you even grade it?

    After much thought and careful consideration, i believe the coin would be graded as a VF 20 by ANACS. Do i win a prize?

    If you get a life and a job maybe you can afford to buy a decent coin rather than problem junk.

    Hey goofy !

    Is it possible, if you can actually think, the reason why I GTG on these particular coins is because of the condition?

    Huh ? There's two different gtgs that same day with different coins same date . 1913 ?? Huh? Goofy? Goofy you there?

    Very interesting outcome on both coins vs concensus.

    You blew it ! You blew it on both coin GTGs LOL

    It sure looks like a 30 net graded down to a 20 due to excessive hairlining to me. I'm surprised it graded.

    Nice job hiding the hairlining in the first picture. You should become an eBay seller. You might score a 98% rating!

    Man this is a deep hole! How long do you guys think it will take to fill it up? I have a few shovels if anyone needs 1 and wants to help!
    @Soldi Do you need one so you can dig it deeper? :p

    I can see that it’s the same coin. There’s a black dot directly above the 9 at the base of the bust. It’s very obvious and I don’t know how someone that says they’re experienced could miss it. Different lighting angles can dramatically affect the appearance of any coin. And why do y’all gotta be so ugly about it?

    You've completely misconstrued what has been said. WE ALL AGREE ITS THE SAME COIN.

    The issue at hand is that the original pic and the slab pic are clearly different pictures taken with different lighting. The first picture posted for the gtg provides a very misleading view of the coin, which the poster is using people guesses from the misleading pic to mock them, and is insisting that they are the same exact picture, which they clearly are NOT.

    You'll also notice if you re-read the thread that no one was in the least bit rude until the poster started insulting people first...

    I will re-read the thread. I just hate seeing things getting so nasty. And we are all adults here, right? If I was in the wrong, please accept my apologies. But I will be sure to re-read the thread.

    That's not true. There were two completely different postings and I was accused of being a liar. I was attacked.

    The reason I posted was to show what grading services do and not to take personal attacks.

    It was purely for the sake of an interesting few over under graded coins. I sought to harm no one.

    I resent being called a liar and I will never post GTGs as I cannot guarantee what others think will keep me from attacks .

    From whence springs the vitriol?

    Smitten with DBLCs.

    I’m inclined to agree the coin was net graded by ANACS for likely old cleaning.
