gymcoachdon Pillar of the Community United States 717 Posts	Posted 03/25/2016 11:20 pm Looking through my collection of Rosies, I had this one labeled as a gem. Took a closer look, and I like it. NGC and PCGS have MS 67 as top pop, no Full torch graded for 1971 by NGC, only 13 total Full bands by PCGS. What do you guys think about the grade of mine? Any chance at 67?

rking007 Pillar of the Community United States 784 Posts	Posted 03/27/2016 7:09 pm I like this at a 66 too. The way the lighting wraps around the torch prevents me from seeing if it's FT or not though. Do you think it is? Report this Post to the Staff
gymcoachdon Pillar of the Community United States 717 Posts	Posted 03/27/2016 8:20 pm Do I think it is? No. It is close though, so part of me says "they might give it!" which means they probably won't. I have seen some slabbed as FT that I wouldn't have given, so that is what makes me go hmmm. If it is a 66, not worth sending in. If it is a 67, or FB/FT, worth the money. I will take another pic of the torch and fiddle with the lighting, see what I can come up with Report this Post to the Staff
gymcoachdon Pillar of the Community United States 717 Posts	Posted 03/27/2016 8:36 pm Not gonna give this one, close up shows the bottom of the torch isn't quite formed up. Edit to add: Still, it looks so much better through the loupe... Edited by gymcoachdon 03/27/2016 8:39 pm Report this Post to the Staff

gymcoachdon Pillar of the Community United States 717 Posts	Posted 03/29/2016 10:32 pm I have to, begrudgingly, agree with you. I really want to find my own coin to get graded for this set, instead of buying coins already slabbed. I will keep looking! That is the fun of this hobby anyway! Report this Post to the Staff
