billjones Pillar of the Community United States 1499 Posts	Posted 12/13/2016 10:26 am To all of those who thing that this coin is "a lock" for the MS-63 grade, I'll leave you with this. Luster does matter. When a coin has been dipped, perhaps too many times, it goes dull. This piece has been dulled. That's why it's in an MS-62 holder. You might get lucky and have it come back in MS-63, but it's not worth it. The Gray Sheet price goes from $22 in MS-60 to $52 in MS-63. That won't pay for the postage and grading fees, and like I wrote, this coin is not lustrous enough for "a lock" on the MS-63 or higher grade. Report this Post to the Staff
