What Grade Would PCGS Give To This?

NumisMe

I am courious what you think this will wind up as in a PCGS holder?
Here's the link.
It looks pretty good, but who or what is PCC?
I am hoping for ms67RD...I guess this will be my first real experiment.

The pics leave a lot to be desired ~ no way to grade from those photos

So far as I know, that date in 67 is worth something. All that picture shows is lustre, which all of these coins posess... I'd bet it's no greater than MS65RD...

Assuming no ticks, visible specks, or distractions... looks 66RD... 67RD at best... but I wouldnt buy a raw "67-68-69-70-71-72" coin of ebay and pay over generic BU price for it. Dealers know that if they want the premium, it's got to have the right plastic around the coin.

I agree with ElectricEye, though. Absolutley no way to grade from that pic.

No chance of a 67 from PCGS in my mind. The "O" on the rev is not fully formed, I'd say MS65 best also.

Great Scott! I cannot believe we're having this debate! For an example of PCC grading, check out this thread:
Guess the grade: Slabbed 1999-P Penn quarter

I do so love it when people list these bottom feeder slabs, then quote PCGS prices on the coins and then sell the coins for fractions of pennies on the dollar! If any of these con artists actually believed in thier product and in the coins that they were selling, they would never sell anything because either the starting price or the reserve would be so high that nobody would buy the coins!

PCGS would give it no better than a 66 red.

Anybody else notice the label says "Penny"?

I have been seeing a lot of these holders on bid boards latey

They are always 4 to 5 points (min) higher them PCGS may give

Maybe they are unaware of the term "cent".....

Hi,

The cent has wonderful luster and probably was cut from a proof set however; with such a small photo, it’s very hard to see the strike… most likely an MS64 or MS65 if it was in a PCGS holder… but of course it’s not in a PCGS holder. It’s the good ole, quote the PCGS price guide then offer the “joe-blow” holder trick.

However, honestly… even if the seller wrote “if this was a PCGS holder, the coin would be worth thousands… here’s your chance to have a slabbed MS67 for a bargain price!” … it would have sold for the same price, or even more, on Ebay.

Buyers love it when a coin is in a plastic holder… something magical happens, even if the holder is not one of the big three.

color looks funny to me.
is that the light or photoshop ?
pix are not enough to form a grade opinion.
