Is this a case of the pedigree effecting the assigned grade, or what? I know a lot of copper coins that would grade AU-58 up north can grade much higher at US TPGs, but this is just ludicrous, not to mention the staining/corrosion or whatever that spot is not being noted?!

.The more I look the weirder this gets. It's a scarce coin for sure - 40,000 were minted that year. And, according to the POP reports at PCGS this guy is among the top 7 mint state BN versions of this coin that they have minted. Even weirder - unless I'm mistaken, this is actually the coin that they're using as their centrefold for the 1885 MS-63BN. I find that almost impossible to believe.
