Moundy?
I'd buy from ACG about as quick as a seller from China. Just my own opinion of course.

Ah but wait, the auction may be correct, Acugrade may be the most consistent third party grading service, the auction says nothing about accuracy!

The price is ridiculous for a maundy 4d, MS68 or no.

Of course, that guy who had an 1869 penny up for £100,000 recently was dreaming too.

Yes, but that isn't a maundy 4d. It's the extremely rare moundy variety.

A classic... Moundy 4d.

The auction states:

"ACCUGRADE WAS RATED #1 AS THE MOST CONSISTENT GRADING SERVICE BASED ON THE NOVEMBER 17, 2003 ISSUE OF COIN WORLD REGARDING THEIR RECENT SURVEY. SEE PAGES 62 THRU 66. PCGS WAS RATED LAST WITH THE MOST SCATTERED GRADING........PLEASE VISIT OUR OTHER AUCTIONS"

That is true, ACG is consistent in that they overgrade most coins by 3-4 points using ANA grading standards.
