DOCC Pillar of the Community United States 1502 Posts	Posted 08/28/2024 08:53 am No experience with grading non-US but I gather near flawless at 66 or higher. That said, I would assume it is a proof. I swing a metal detector and have a knack for finding dirty old coins.

I agree that with very limited knowledge, it does look like a proof. At that value, it probably deserves gloves. Report this Post to the Staff

jordi94 New Member Netherlands 2 Posts	Posted 08/30/2024 10:39 am Thank you for those who welcomed me, greatly appreciated & For those of you who guessed proof, you were right. Thats the good news. The bad news is that PCGS determined that its only a PR63. Honestly, when I look at some of the US PR coins out there then I get the feeling that grading for non-US coins is wayyy stricter. It might also just be that my pictures are bad :) Edited by jordi94 08/30/2024 10:41 am Report this Post to the Staff
Moniker Pillar of the Community Sweden 1825 Posts	Posted 08/30/2024 1:30 pm idk know, I feel small marks are more visible on the mirrorlike fields on proofs than nonproofs I wonder if that makes a difference Report this Post to the Staff
