Re: Grade Request: 1945 P Walking Liberty Half
This area seems malformed. the small area above the H appears different in both angle and squareness of the area highlighted with the arrow. May be nothing wrong, but just stood out to me.

Re: What do you think of Ebay listings concerning PCGS genuine slabs?
