    From my experience, the reverse is almost always better than obverse. Just recently I acquired a 1912 Canadian $10 gold and a 1913 Canadian $5 gold for the type. Both pieces were graded PCGS MS-62. The obverses are indeed no better than MS-62, maybe 63 for the $5. The reverse of both coins look like MS-66 or even 67.


    I've seen this on early U.S. gold coins too. The reverse is almost always better than obverse.

      Yes, but what about when both faces are on the reverse?

    Some of you have quite the imagination.

    The more qualities observed in a coin, the more desirable that coin becomes!
