Bullion 65?
I don't even know what prefix TPGs give bullion coins.Likely MS,but should be something else be used after all bullion coins have their own unique strike and finish.

Umm MS works I guess. Btw the scratch on the top right of the reverse is on the slab not on the coin.

Impossible to tell from the pictures, it is such a fine line between MS67 and MS69. Generally none of the Wildlife series has been graded above MS69 by PCGS or NGC. I have been putting together a collection of NGC MS69's and it has been very difficult. I have all but the Grizzly. NGC POP is only 64 and the last dealer I contacted wanted over $200 for it. The POP is higher for the cougar but it would have to be close to perfect to get MS68 or 69. I'd say MS68 only because most people don't bother to slab anything less  |

Hah yeah DBM, graded by CoinWorld  Wanted to see what you guys would give it. Only traded going value for raw pieces anyways; knowing that CoinWorld slabbing is worth nothing more than basement slabbers. Traded $30 value for it, how did I do? Still in hand looks MS66/MS67. I guess the guy who traded me this got it straight from CoinWorld. |

You did well for $30. Glad you saw through the basement slabbing and paid what it is worth. Like I said , no Canadian Wildlife Series coin has ever bee graded higher than MS69 by PCGS or NGC they were just all poorly struck and spotty. ANACS has some 70's , maybe they just got the best submissions or ........ well that is a discussion for another thread.
Definitely not MS70 but if no milk spots could be MS67-68, I have seen a ton of those.

Yup no milk spots . Although there in a tiny break in luster at the rim on the reverse don't know how that would factor in. By the shape and size id say it was from where another coin touched it at the the mint and no there in no scratch. CoinWorld "guarantees" that: A) This Coin has never been circulated B) This coin has never been touched by anything but coin gloves C) This coin has come straight from the mint and has not been bought from a 3rd party. That's a plus I guess. The slab is sealed and all. |
