So, I'm all pissed at PCGS because they way undergraded one of my coins...

...then I get the order back today and they were right! It's this one:
They graded it PR66DCAM and I thought they were whacked in the head. Nope. I missed some friggin' hairlines in the upper left obverse field! Damnit! I rarely miss them these days, but I blew it on this coin!

I bash them plenty - when they deserve it.

Nope. They're directly in front of Kennedy's forehead. Not visible in the image, and damned hard to find even with the coin in-hand.

Yeah, PCGS hates hairlines on modern proofs. Much more so than NGC.

Nope. The other four were brilliant Accented Hairs that I was expecting to come in at PR67. Three did, and one came in at PR66.
