I was just looking through the pictures in my copy of the PCGS coin grading and counterfeit detection book and I noticed on pages C-38 and C39 they use the same coin and in one picture it's called a 64/65 and in the other picture it's called a 63/64. Am I missing something or is this why they graded my 11-D a 63 when it looks better than 65's I ownimage. mike

    Its either the same coin with bagmarks added with photoshop or its the result of the Lordmarcovan shovelfull o' coins. Those shovels have brutal results.Link

    it's for sure the same coin they just added a few marks. Hopefully they did it with a computer and I don't mean by dropping it on the coin image. mike

    I own this book, but haven't looked at what you speak of yet.

    Wanted to mention looking at pictures of morgans in this book.

    I find that what is described and pictured is not the same I see on the market.
