After quite a while at PCGS, I glanced at my submissions before they've arrived and to say the grader was having a bad day was an understatement. At least three of my previously PCGS graded coins that I cracked came back a full numerical grade lower, I know, I took that risk so I really can't fault anyone else....but this one I can't wrap my head around. I had this at least gem and it's damaged? Where? Anyone else have an idea? Great luster? Came back as unc details damaged

Did PCGS mention anything about wheel marks? I bought one slabbed coin that was Detailed using that term and I swear it took me about 20 minutes to find the small area on the reverse. Don't know how they spotted it, when they only inspect the coin for about a minute.

I haven't actually received them back yet, but will in a couple days. Where would I find that explanation? Do they include something in the box?

Sorry to hear the PCGS wizards disappointed you. Inconsistency in their grading is why I gave up on using them, sold all my Registry coins and have never looked back.

Image is way too small for me to weigh in. Hope you can find it when you have the coin in hand.
Take a look at my other hobby ... http://www.jk-dk.art

My best guess are the black mark by liberty and around the rims. Doesn't look bad but that's the only thing I see wrong from the pictures.

Hard to see from the photos, but maybe some minimal Wrapping Machine Damage at the top of UNITED? If so, that's incredibly picky on a gorgeous coin.
