Some of the TPG's must be getting desperate....

I know we have all seen some coins in holders that are probably 2-3 grades lower, but it is unbelievable that anyone would grade this one MS66.
Quote from the seller....
"THERE'S NOT ANOTHER ONE LIKE THIS IN THE WORLD! THE SCANS COULDN'T CAPTURE THE INCREDIBLE BEAUTY OF THE COLORS AND DON'T DO THIS COIN JUSTICE!!! IT IS LOADED WITH LUSTER!!!"
My azz!
I give it a F to VF something and that's being nice. If the seller is a regular on this forum...... thhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

I wish there was a way to stop this referencing of top-tier slab catalog values for Crap-U-Slab coins. It's gotten to be a standard selling practice on Slezebay!
you probably have not been informed, but NTC's grading scale goes to 100.
The 41-44 S Mints are notorious for weak strikes,this appears to be the worst of the worst !
It may be an MS coin,but certainly no better than a 60 !
PCGS and NGC would likely give it a 40 to 45 because of the terrible strike,look at the devices that are lower relief,looks pretty good.
I might go 20 bucks if i had enough to drink !
Proof
I also agree that it looks AT- wouldn't touch it with proof's $20....
smoebodys gonna be pissed !

The coin is a piece of swill. And I just love his warning to the snipers out there just might try to "steal" his wonder gems early
SNIPERS BEWARE!
I RESERVE THE RIGHT TO END MY AUCTIONS EARLY AT ANY TIME SO IF YOU WANT MY COINS YOU BETTER BID ON THEM EARLY!
ALOHA!

Experimenting creating AT coins, so I would know how to spot AT coins when looking to buy, I've made coins that looked just like that...I can even post the ingredients and how to get these colors
There is NO WAY that coin would slab at PCGS...it's AT all the way!
Grade wise, it's a cleaned coin on top of that, and that is why it was toned in the first place...that's why the seller says "It's got excellent luster under the toning"...cleaned coins are booming/bright white. So if the coin didn't BB for AT, it would BB for cleaning. In either scenario, it's grade becomes irrelevant.
There are weakly struck walkers in "s" mint, but here's an "s" mint walker graded for reference (this coin is one of the nicest 4's I've seen, and perhaps a 5 some day)....the MS66 is a "TAD" bit zealous by NTC

I made a Merc look just like that once...
1 - Hard boiled crushed egg
1- Slice of Vidalia onion -- 1/8" thick
2- Tablespoons of Apple Vinegar 5%
1- Rubber ring from inside of a cracked out PCGS holder to put the coin in
1- Tupperware container
1- Fishtank to put the mixture under the hood of to get some heat/moisture
6- hours of wait time
3 - days to soak in Acetone to get rid of the smell
This mixture yielded different results on different coins, but one result looked like the Walker in the NTC holder.

Classic!
