Pacificoin Pillar of the Community Canada 5394 Posts	Posted 07/03/2025 11:29 am Glad you got it authenticated. What's questionable colour ? I will help here , if you are just a minor submitter collector or dealer .bang questionable ! One of the power house dealer / auction houses .. a no questions asked MS65 + Gem worthy of the finest collection. Unreal original toning ! The whole grading , authenticity game is filled with frozen cow pucks ! Stated just to stir the pot! Edited by Pacificoin 07/03/2025 11:32 am Report this Post to the Staff

If they can't decide, why compromise a coin rating with a non-conclusive decision, such as "UNC Details because of Questionable Color"? Edit to add this: Pacificoin, you are spot on!

MisterT Pillar of the Community United States 2003 Posts	Posted 07/03/2025 12:23 pm Well on the plus side you have a coin deemed "Genuine". On the minus side you have a coin considered "UNC- Details" which basically takes the value of an MS-60 coin and cuts it in half for many collectors. In reality this coin will be worth whatever someone is willing to pay for it. Some may consider the details grade as a negative and offer half of the MS-60 value. Others may Like the eye appeal of the colorful toning and offer a premium which could range from $2300 in MS-60 to $5200 in MS-65. Myself, I would place it in the mid range UNC (MS-63) With a value of $2800 and with the details designation I would be a buyer in the $1500 range. Others may feel differently.

Just look at all the obvious work done by Mountain Mike that straights https://www.ebay.com/str/mikesmountainvalues Not claiming they look bad but NOBODY happens upon so many toners - unless of course, they are a color artist. * Staff Edit: Link fixed.
