PCGS gave this one a MS64BN. The price difference between an MS64 and an MS65 is a lot - almost double. PCGS price guide shows $500 vs $1000. Do you all think this would be worth sending it to be reconsidered?

Sorry to disappoint but I think your numbers are off. MS65BNs sell for about $550-600. MS64BNs for about $350-400. I don't think this example would make 65bn, and even if it did, it would not sell in the 550-600 range due to discoloration and surface flaws. There are examples in 65bn with CAC stickers and no problems selling below 600. These common, late-date large cents didn't circulate extensively and there are many gem examples available for purchase.
IMHO, if you coin were to grade rb or rd, the premium would skyrocket. Unfortunately I don't see this coin getting upgraded in color either.
IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: " It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

Not too disappointing, I was just wondering, and going by the PCGS price guide (which is often much higher than it actually goes for). I'm still happy with the coin, definitely.
