PCGS AU53 1922
I hope the coin is nicer than the image, if not, PCGS is grading very loosely. Coin Trend for $110 in AU.

    I'm currently watching an auction of an NGC AU55 US-PI 1934-M Five Centavos that seems even further off the mark, and I am considering taking a chance, just as you apparently did on your win. I still haven't made up my mind though. I don't really need the coin, but hey, it costs real money to get a coin certifed, so I thought I might simply place a bid for that amount.

    It better be nicer than the pic... I wouldn't give the coin in the pic EF45, let alone AU.

    Hmmm... How does that saying go? Buy the coin, not the holder/slab/plastic? Or something along those lines? LOL, Here is my latest purchase for my grading set of this type. It seems I have been selling under-graded duplicate coins for years!

    Not the best images. There are striking isses with some George V cents. I would hold off until one has the coin in hand and takes a good look at the fields. I think the fields will be the test as to whether these are graded right

    Received the 1922 1c PCGS AU53 and 1924 1c PCGS AU55 today. Both coins are accurately graded. They are much, much nicer than the images in the auctions.

    In that case, you're dangerously close to a "you suck." image

    I'm glad to hear that. I wouldn't have bid on the coins because the photos looked subpar. You suck, eh?
