I've never understood how graders can case a coin crooked...but oh well. This one has some light russet toning on both sides. It shows up a little in the pics but not entirely.

They did not, the coins can spin inside the holder depending on handling and Ikes seem to be bad about it. There is a way to (gently and continuously) strike the corner edge of the slab on a table to get the coin to rotate.

Please buy some cotton gloves or only touch the rims, oils from your fingers can and will stain a coin... Hard to tell from pic, could be paint of a bit of grease... Try soaking it overnight in pure acetone to see if it comes off.

You are welcome.

This video may help.

What to do when a coin is rotated in its slab. Try at your own risk!

Thanks again, jbuck. It's not that big of a deal to me. If I get OCD over it, I might give it a try. lol Anyway, I didn't realize they could move so much in the holder. I just figured the person who cased it got lazy. Ha.

While I'm at it, here's a worn Bi-Centennial Ike.

Well, even though I want to believe otherwise, I have to admit that is a possibility.

Looks like I have a fresh pair of slabbed Ikes coming my way.

One of you already knows the skinny.
