Why not? There are people who buy slabbed "No FG" Kennedy halves b/c the slab says so, but clearly show an FG. These canb be seen on ebay without to much problem. I mean - it the "experts" (TPG'ers or ebay store owner)say there is no FG / D, then there is no FG /D right?  |

That is sad and funny at the same time.

The bid is now up to 90.00. Very misleading title for the listing. You can still see the D in the pictures. Also, it's not BU. It has a ton of bag marks on it, which means it has been in circulation for a while. It's unbelievable how stupid some sellers can be, even when they know it's there. They just decide to be ignorant and sell it as a "No D" anyway.  Errers and Varietys.

I ASQ'd the Seller about the visible mintmark vs the description. Let's see how, or if, they respond.
(BTW - I was nice and civil!)

Westernsky, we'll see. Don't be too surprised if you don't get a response or get a very angry response.
Errers and Varietys.

Look at it like this, GSC sells a decent 22 weak D for $90.00 mislabeled and all. L and C labels it correctly in a PCGS slab and asks $900.00.
Which one is more of a stinker? Peeyou...what stinkers.
Surely this is a mistake, GSC wouldn't purposely list it like this. Bet they do fobs of listings and they erred. Wish they would err some for me.

PEOPLE - Bag Marks DO NOT indicate circulation.
Unless there are sufficient bangs and scratches that might make it uncirculated DETAILS, those marks DO NOT change an uncirculated coin to a circulated grade or status.
They affect uncirculated technical grade and they reduce eye appeal, both of which reduce value. But not from 60-70 to a lower than 60 technical grade.

Marks and scratches on a coin do not affect the technical grade. I agree that this particular coin appears to be worn, however. Edited by SilverDollar2017

Actually the dies were so over polished, the devices are that weak. The coin maybe a normal weight. A lot of people saved these. The dies were so altered they look like that. When the coin has a strong fresh reverse, they grade the coin by the reverse, not the obverse.
