Just looking through some old Heritage auctions and stumbled across this. I'm not sure why I found the description for this coin so funny..

Sometimes, a catalogue describer will describe a lot VERY accurately, with a subdued sense of humour, just to make the catalogue a little more enjoyable to read.

Haha I guess so. I was just thinking of PCGS attempting to fit, Details: Holed 3x, Plugged, Graffiti, Cleaned, and Artificially Toned all on one slab.

Great analogy, jarubla, Ship of Theseus indeed! Just imagine getting two coins from one; what a great deal if you could recover everything that had been removed!
