Okay, not really. But it's a bit surprising that a MS70+ column is automatically generated in CoinFacts when an eBay sale is reported that had a + sign in the heading.

    1964 proof Kennedy half dollars have had 69+ listed as a possible grade too now for quite a while. Not sure why pcgs doesn’t correct the mistakes, or are these a sign of things to come?

    Are they listing ebay sales now again?

    At least they are not doing a minus which could be tough on the market.

    I don’t know how something could be more perfect. Isn’t that an oxymoron?

    It's an option they offer to view eBay sales. It does not do it by default.

  • I agree it makes no sense for anything to be 70+, plus when people refer to 70 as "perfect," I always like to point out that that is not the case. 70 for the TPGs means that with a certain level of magnification, there are no visible imperfections, but there is no such thing as a perfect coin.

    CoinFacts has plenty of glitches. It's still a great resource, though. Please excuse the highlighter...
