I bought this coin last year at Heritage because I thought it was simply a beautiful one of a kind example of a common commemorative:
This year I decided to get a second opinion from the experts. I submitted it to PCGS for a crossover (any grade). I was curious to see if PCGS would deem it "market acceptable". If it came back bodybagged I would at least know that there was some big issue with the toning.
I got my results today and it made the cut.
11204507 9621 1986-S $1 Statue Of Liberty US PR67DC
they bumped it down a grade but passed it as kosher. I am thrilled and now two services (and Russ) agree with me that the coin is a certifiable gem.
(I will now await the wave of naysayer posts with fortified conviction)

It's natural toning from album storage.

Russ, I remembered your comment from earlier last year it was right on the money then and now.

Did it go for moon money in the ICG holder at last year's Heritage auction?
Is the perfect color of a sunset or rise...even the water is blue...
Amazing.
