Ok TT auction 2619 lot 3205. Here's my arguement. How can any coin be a perfect grade of 70 if it is not struck in all aspects of finish,stike,comparision of the others in that die run.
We know it is ICG on this one and I hope the leach doesn't come out and say that I am promoting ICG or disrespecting Pcgs for talking about this coin. So opinions on why or why not any coin not stuck as equal to the qualifications deem for that coin can be a 70.
I have seen other TPG doing the same and it puzzles me. Thanks.
Error means something is wrong with the coin correct.

i.e. off-centers, die caps, clips, etc, grade the struck part & disregard the blank part. Being this creates loss of metal flow which results in weak strikes, of course the 70 grade is impossible.
The 70 grade is impossible for any biz strike coin due to production methods. hahaha YaHa.

I think it is more like "Don't let the horse kick you in the arse when you leave." variety.

My original order was for 4 sets. I had ordered two for myself and two for a friend who didn't have an account with the Mint. Two of the sets had this error, and I felt it was only fair that I let my friend have one. A short time later, CW ran a story about this error. Another collector had ordered 10 (I think) sets and he gave the extras as gifts to relatives before he discovered the error. Supposedly, all of them had this error.
These 12 sets are the only ones that have ever been reported. I think I'll keep mine. I already have a car.
