Grade revealed. it is not a top tier TPG, but I was curious as to what the consensus was on this PCI slabbed 5C.

Who da man!


Original guess was Proof, PR-65/66. PCI usually does go 1-2 grades higher.



What prize do I get?

Now, how much reverse die rotation, almost 180°, or just 5° and what die pairs?

Agree that the coin is very nice.
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."

I do not see any die rotation, I do have a Cherry Pickers Guide so I will have to do some research.

I may be wrong but I thought all the proof 1872's had the DDO?

Really is only one listing for proof Here, but thought I saw two mentioned somewhere with the 5 and @180 degree rotation but can't find it now.
