Fresh Back From TrueViewing @ PCGS - 1920 Mercury Dime

Purchased raw not long ago. Sent it in for a re-holder and TrueView.
Y'all can take a stab at the grade w/out cheating if you'd like...
Phil did a fantastic job imaging, as always.
Submission turn-around time was quicker than usual as well! Thanks, PCGS!
I've never been much into collecting toned coins really, but some nice ones have just fallen into my hands lately. I think I've caught... THE BUG!
Thanks for Looking!

Yeah, it really is! Color really "pops" under a lamp.
And yeah, I'm not too sure what held it back to "choice" and not "gem... The spots really aren't bad. Most mix well with the toning.
But whatever. Doesn't bother me too much. I'm just happy it graded!
Thanks for all of the nice comments, guys!
