As a result, a very unfair grading is possible. It appears to have no wear. Need a different lighting angle, and if it was photographed in a holder, it should be taken out, because dust particles can be attracted to the clear Mylar window. My Krause values these at $8 in uncirculated. If this value is near to being correct, perhaps shipping TPG grading fees are not justified on value alone. Report this Post to the Staff

While I see no obvious wear in these photos, there is considerable disturbance of the luster in those darker areas on both sides. The precise nature of those darker areas will be significant in determining grade. Report this Post to the Staff
