    Good answers all! This one was especially tough:


    Gold CAC “legend” implies a grade+ - 2 grades too low. That would make all answers in the ballpark or right on.

    Today’s edition:


    Poster’s requirements are 1) MS or PR with your grade#; 2) include description stated on the PCGS label (it is standard & not an obscure one).

    LOL. That coin would have been graded XF in the 1960's! That gold been answers the rest of the story. All the AU GTG members are not blind! PCGS net graded a 100% AU coin. Now it is probably worth more in the gold "beaned" incorrectly graded slab than if it were accurately graded as an AU.

    Scratch turns me off = AU-58 (commercial MS-63)

    After reading requirements above: Label says MS-60 scratched.
