  • Strange, I would have said 100% lightly polished. image

    Edited to add: Although looking at the fields you can see die flow lines that would have been obliterated in order to achieve a shine that this coin exibits. I guess its an anomaly, cause it doesnt look like it is a natural brilliance as struck.
  • From the pics is looks polished, but since you cracked it out I would say 63/64.

    If you sent it back into PCGS, would they designate the "FBL"? image

    Nice looking coin, If you don't want it, I'll trade?

    It certainly looks polished in your pictures. Since you said PCGS old holder, I will guess it is MS63, and dipped.
    I collect Capped Bust series by variety in PCGS AU/MS grades.
  • These are notrioriously crappy coins, and this polish job is no exception IMO.

    If that coin was slabbed, it was a 64 maybe 65. Assuming it wasn;t cleaned, the luster is great. Not normally found on Sequi's.
