My first want list notification in 2 years!

I had never received a Teletrade want list notification before today. Probably about 2 yrs ago I filled out a request to notify me if ever a PCGS MS69 bust or seated half should be listed for sale. Here's the "successfull" notification I received today for this Sunday's auction:

Lot 1881: 1827 PCGS Mixed Grade (2 Items) 2 coins. 1827 Square Base 2 Holed and Plugged GENUINE. 1836 Lettered Edge VF30.

Even if I add up the two grades (VF30+VF30) I don't get to MS69............image
The 1827 is plugged at 11:00 so that would make MS71 (30+30+11). Still can't get to 69! But if I abbreviate "hold and plugged genuine" to "HPGenuine," that's 9 characters and that does get us to MS69 (30+30+9). Done deal.

Needless to say I won't be placing this lot on my watch list.
