    I'm not sure that's a wear spot, it might be a very weak strike. At any rate, it's ugly and shouldn't be an MS64 coin.

    I think that's a weak strike which is fairly common.

    I think the flat spot on the breast is a strike issue. However, the measles are another story, that coin is a 63 at best and most likely a 62 with negative eye appeal.

  • Or a 64?

    Any MS coin?

    I doubt it.

    Could be a MS63 coin. The flat spot on the breast is probably strike but it has the same effect - a distraction. The luster seems very dullish to non-existant on this coin. Certainly no MS65 and probably not MS64. This is a SEGS coin.

    Here's something the seller states that I didn't know. SEGS has a grade guarantee!?

    A guarantee that you will not find from ANY other grading company. SEGS puts this guarantee on their website, in writing, for everyone to see. That guarantee states that the SEGS grading company will within six months of grading a coin that you think has been graded too high, regrade the coin and if the new grade comes out lower than the original, pay the owner the difference in value of the overgrade and the regrade.

    If such a policy is in effect, I'd like to see the "regrading" line at SEGS. Is it a fully blind, impartial regrade where the graders have no idea they are regrading something under guarantee?

    Look at the cotton leaves on the reverse. While the obverse might pass for weak strike, the reverse strongly suggests AU.

    I never knew or noticed that either, but your question is a good one and could well render it meaningless.
