TNG Bedrock of the Community United States 10284 Posts	Posted 11/06/2011 7:21 pm [eBayItem]180751107906[/eBayItem] I am wondering if NGC is a bit more liberal with the numeric grading scale than PCGS and ANACS. If this is a typical example I would say so. In my opinion, this SMS nickel is at best only MS63. Not a $65.00 coin. I hope this is not a CCF members listing. I would not have even spent the money to send the coin in for a grade. As a matter of fact, I wouldn't even own this coin if the decimal point was moved over to make it $6.50. Comments?
