This is not a PCGS coin most likely an ICCS or not graded

fingerprint aside, that is a nice '48. If it's ICCS, which it appears to be, they only technically grade and would not penalize for this fingerprint.
What did this one get silverwolf?

All of these options would get you somewhere. I suggest that you show them the posts you have made here. The mere fact that there are hundreds of people seeing this may change things. They may think this is another customer complaint, until they realize that they have an audience of over 200.

what does PCGS have to do with this thread ?  and I assume the coin was sent in for grading withOUT the fingerprint ? or are we just looking at a nice coin with a not so nice fingerprint ?

I doubt the fingerprint came from ICCS.
They'd have to be eating a basket of french fries with their hands to leave a print like that.

More proof ICCS doesn't take fingerprints into account when grading coins. Seller is asking top price for this with fingerprint. Has been on the market for what seems like months now. Too bad, it has nice toning 181747533529

I don't know how ICCS can do that?..do they not consider eye appeal at all.

You would be surprised how many coins come out of a freshly opened mint bag with fingerprints on them. Back in the day, mint workers would sort and move the coins around with their bare hands, mostly looking for defects and moving them into bags.
