1715 Transylvania Taler

Took MarcMoish's advice and schlepped this to the NY show. Very scarce piece I bought earlier (2 graded in total) in the year. The MS-63 piece sold at Heritage Auction Link
I am not at all a professional grader yet in looking at these two side by side, it is hard for me to see much of a difference in quality (putting aside the edge flaw on the MS-63). As a reference point the bottom piece grades MS-61. Showing it to the few on the floor they agreed that it is not easy to distinguish.
Here they are side by side.

Your coin has that original look that I personally prefer.
I feel, despite professional grading opinions, your coin is the nicer of the two.

Z - from limited evidence, I say you have every reason to question your coin's grade. What is the TPG?

Glad you were able to regardless - they took it at the show?
