Well, I know PCGS isn't known for grading Canadian coins the best but to be this far off is surprising... AU53 PCGS... Cant get the full image to load at the moment...  Edited by snek

Looks like a nice die clash on the reverse... The portrait of the queen is poking through nicely.

wow... maybe I should send all my coins to PCGS. I guess all my ICCS AU55s will get to be 62s and 63s?
would be nice getting rich over night.

Woops I didn't see that you posted the grade. AU53 seems a little high. If they had said EF40 or 45 (because of that luster) I wouldn't have been shocked. But I think 53 is a little too much

Based on Pcgs grading philosophy this probably is a 53 in their minds ( I do NOT agree). Coin does have some eye appeal and is a scarcer date ,and shows some colour. This all falls in line with the US TPG market grading concept. I would certainly pay EF money for this nice piece. |

Indeed! Nice buy! One thing about the PCGS and NGC stuff, you may not get the right money in Canada but you probably will in the US. That said they still cannot grade Canadian Coins!  |

I would have said AU-50, then I started to see all the other grades and thought wow was I wrong, then I saw the slab with AU-53! man was I wrong.
