shoover4 Valued Member United States 63 Posts	Posted 10/21/2015 08:50 am I'm interested in the grade on this one, but also have concerns about authenticity. Does the mint mark look slightly high to anyone else? It appears to be in position 3, but the top of the S looks like it is slightly above the bottom of the 9's (instead of being in line with the bottom). * Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. * Report this Post to the Staff

BH1964 Bedrock of the Community United States 10982 Posts	Posted 10/21/2015 09:12 am Detail looks AU with some environmental damage in play. The S? Well the coin needs to be authenticated regardless of what I think but I would be concerned until it made a round trip to a major TPG. ANA #R3154474 Report this Post to the Staff
SHAFTA9a Bedrock of the Community Canada 10743 Posts	Posted 10/21/2015 11:00 am The "S" looks to be a different color than the date.. Or, it just seems that way with the photo, this coin always has to be authenticated before one buys it. Report this Post to the Staff
shoover4 Valued Member United States 63 Posts	Posted 10/21/2015 1:28 pm Thanks to both of you. I'm always quite skeptical of non-TPG ones, but this one just strikes me as being a bit off and I'm going to pass on it. Report this Post to the Staff

paralyse Bedrock of the Community United States 12057 Posts	Posted 10/21/2015 10:06 pm Color, spacing, and M/M appearance are wrong, and that's once you get past this being the ultra-rare "Fat Nose" variety...
