paleoguy45 Pillar of the Community United States 2936 Posts	Posted 03/31/2015 10:16 am You got it Cascade... I have an "AU" one that came back with "details" grade from PCGS also. The Mint's attempt to polish out the "crumbles" almost guarantees a "details" from the TPG's... PG Report this Post to the Staff
Cascade Pillar of the Community United States 7390 Posts	Posted 03/31/2015 10:25 am What?... Why would mint die polishing cause a details grade. Can they not tell the difference? Can't remember without looking but I have a VAM with harsh polish lines all over the fields so bad I thought it was cleaned but came back MS Report this Post to the Staff
SsuperDdave Moderator United States 23522 Posts	Posted 03/31/2015 10:27 am 1G, but this one is a very close call to VAM-31. There is enough detail here and at VAMworld to nail the attribution but it's not easy. Good practice to see if you can tell the difference. Report this Post to the Staff
paleoguy45 Pillar of the Community United States 2936 Posts	Posted 03/31/2015 10:51 am For me, the first "8" placement in relation to the denticles is the real deciding factor. The vast majority of the PUP's in a circulated one are very difficult/impossible to nail. Report this Post to the Staff
SsuperDdave Moderator United States 23522 Posts	Posted 03/31/2015 12:24 pm Date placement isn't clear enough in the images. They're too close. How'd I do it? Report this Post to the Staff

dave700x Rest in Peace United States 10625 Posts	Posted 04/01/2015 2:01 pm Quote: How'd I do it? My guess would be the presence or lack thereof doubling under the upper crossbar of the "1" in the date? Nice pick PG! I love Morgans struck with over-worked dies.
