Benji Valued Member United States 459 Posts	Posted 06/26/2007 3:25 pm Here is something to keep the Bust 50c post alive and kicking. An O-122 (R1) (left tilted 3 in date). Later die state (with stars slightly drawn to rim) Someone can certainly verify the Overton for me as I am not completely confident in this attribution (still looking for a 3rd Edition). SuperDave, I also would have loved to get in on that auction that you posted. *Edited by Forum Mom to split into it's own topic* Report this Post to the Staff

Susanlynn9 Forum Mom United States 5877 Posts	Posted 06/27/2007 4:31 pm It looks like O-122 to me. I'd grade it as VF30. Why does the pic say "Not Certified by PCGS" on the bottom? Did you submit it and they bodybagged it? If so, why was it BB'd? Report this Post to the Staff
Benji Valued Member United States 459 Posts	Posted 06/27/2007 5:40 pm I don't recall why it bagged without digging out the tag but, I would assume they cleaned her or it did not holder at my minimum grade requested? Report this Post to the Staff
SsuperDdave Moderator United States 23522 Posts	Posted 06/27/2007 11:40 pm PCGS is throwing the "Questinable Surfaces" card pretty easily these days; I can see a glimmer of potential doubt in the color and character of the cleanliness/toning considering the grade. Just as an aid to my learning curve, Benji, would you call this one EF with poor strike, or a nice VF? Report this Post to the Staff

Benji Valued Member United States 459 Posts	Posted 06/28/2007 12:36 am I am not really well versed in the CB50c. I picked this lady up b/c IMO it has not been cleaned, looks more original than most slabbed, and it was a steal$ I am not all that worried...I actually think I requested AU grade on the submission...The toe tag says No Grade. Even if cleaned, it probably would have holdered. I am sure if it were re-submitted it would come back XF40-45. She looks pretty good in the buff though. She is available for adoption if interested.
