Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 04/05/2017 5:46 pm Try your hand at grading this (uncirculated) note in a PMG EPQ holder. PS - The top obverse margin is identical to the lower margin; the note is tipped back in this photo to avoid flashback. Edited by Coinfrog 04/05/2017 5:49 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 04/07/2017 5:42 pm Sorry about the pics, I know they weren't very helpful. It's in a 64EPQ holder. Normally I don't buy this grade for a common note, but in skimming over the pics I paused on this because of the centering, which in hand (not clear I understand) is easily 65. I was the only bidder in a small auction at under $500 delivered. Point here, once again, is to keep your eyes open for this sort of situation: No downside on an already-graded PQ note, and big potential upside on a re-grade.

I wholeheartedly agree Mr.Frog. My personal opinion is that PMG grades a tad harder on centering than PCGS, and there is a chance it would get bumped up to GEM. Buy the note, not the holder.

Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 04/07/2017 6:58 pm Stever - I think you're right, but the outliers on both services still leave you scratching your head. It will always be a crapshoot and I try to stay calm when I open the grading returns. At least for a few seconds. jacek - I'll submit it for a re-grade to PMG.

Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 04/08/2017 5:03 pm jacek - I of course meant PMG, which is the PM grading subsidiary of NGC. Same company. Edited by Coinfrog 04/08/2017 5:06 pm Report this Post to the Staff
