    Undoubtedly the same coin.

    Not at all the same grade (64->66).

    What's not right? That's the coin game.

    Same coin....must not be a big difference in value. The 66 list 58 max on history.

    I think it was undergraded then overgraded looks 65 to me.image

    IMHO a one point swing is the coin game. A 2 point swing is a con game.

    I don't know. What if the coin's "true" grade is really MS65 and in each of these submissions the coin had a one point swing (once up and once down)?
