Congrats!
IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS
THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: "It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

Congratulations!

So what do you all think about this grade?


PCGS was wrong. That amount of damage should be "details."

First off congratulations on the grade.

I have to guess PCGS thought some of the rim issues were planchet defects because there is no other way it could grade problem free. That's my 2 cents worth.

I can certainly see that. I felt really lucky about getting this one non-details graded. I had never seen any coins in PCGS slabs with the amount of "damage" on the rim of mine.

I guess this is a very plausible explanation for why this got a grade.
