Wow...

NEVER crack that one out of that slab because it would NEVER find its way back
into that slab.

^Agreed

I still want to know whats on the reverse of the coin, it looks like it might be on the holder?

TennesseeDave

This coin just sold on e-bay and I also thought it was overgraded by at least 15.I would've given it a 30.Thanks for the comments.

STONE

Could it possibly be a good crackout and replaced with a lesser grade coin.

My guess is PCGS got off one line on their group submission. I can see this coin going VF30 on a good day, certainly no better.
