Possibly @1coincollector as well. He put a reaction on every post in this thread, but has never posted.
@1coincollector , no offence meant if you are not another Mikee.

No need to apologize.
You are accurate in your assessment.

I only have 1, I also purchased the coin not the grade... well the grade made the coin less expensive (much less expensive)

Currently at CAC, and just posted a "will it CAC?" thread/poll.
Nothing is as expensive as free money.
I’m not seeing what dropped this coin to MS-60. It’s a nice looking coin.
@pmh1nic , I agree.
Here is just the coin. I've seen 62 and 3's look worse.

Send it to CAC for the gold bean.

Dang! I've been dismissive of this grade before but some of these coins appear a bit undergraded... I'm not seeing co tact marks on the $5 Indian that would bring it down to 60...

It looks AU to me.

Do I interpret that to mean the assigned 60 is a reflection that it’s not truly an MS coin?
It’s a weird way to market grade if that’s the case. Normally you hear of sliders getting into 62 holders. To get a 60, you normally need a lot of contact marks on a coin that’s still technically UNC.
Always thought this one was better than MS60:

I rather have a nice looking 58.
Years ago a coin that had some rub but was otherwise a nice coin without any distracting contact marks was given the AU-58 grade. You could find some really nice coins for a good price in that grade. But for the rub the eye appeal was much better than some MS-62 and 63 coins. I’d intentionally look for AU-58’s to get a nice coin at a good price
Unfortunately (IMHO) that practice was changed. Today a coin can have significant contact marks but if it has almost full mint luster it gets a 58 grade.
No, I don’t think that was the intention. I’d guess that many people think the coin looks uncirculated. I’m just not one of them.

What grade would you give it based on the picture?
AU58, though I might have a different opinion in-hand and/or with clearer pictures.

I much prefer the AU-58 grade over the MS-60.
I absolutely love this coin for its grade!
I don’t have anything from the majors graded MS60, but I do have this, my first “nice” large cent, purchased ~35 years ago:

Either @PCGS_Moderator took Friday off or isn't willing to ban because IP addresses (or something) aren't incriminating enough.
But there could not possibly be a more obvious alt situation, even from the other CAC/Rick snow/together hating troll who comes by from time to time.

Numbismasochism.
It’s like _Groundhog Day” behavior getting better, but the default icons and uncropt smartphone shots are the giveaways.
I believe that PCGS Moderator had the week off. He hasn't responded to my PMs all week.
Also, the BST troll/scammer comes to mind.

I'm just really surprised blitzdude hasn't shown up yet to accuse us of being forum police.

Right.... I try to help where I can by PMing the moderator, and usually that fixes the problem. My uncle is a police officer, so maybe I got it from him.

This T$1 looks so much nicer than the TrueView image.
If you have a concern either report the post or send me a message.
I see all of your concerns about the alt account. But you realize that just because a few folks get together and assert that someone is an alt account, that I am not going to just up and ban them? You all have the option to not read or not respond to threads by any given user.
