Imthealphaomega Pillar of the Community United States 3210 Posts	Posted 07/21/2017 3:02 pm In a PCGS 63 holder. VAM 2 doubled ear top 100. You think it could make a 64 with the few hits on the cheek. Above average strike for this year and the toning is yummy. Should I send it in for reconsideration or crack it out and send it in raw and have it VAM attribution to it. I have about 13 coins going economy service and 2'valuable pieces going normal service. Here are pics, Report this Post to the Staff

numismatic student Bedrock of the Community United States 11894 Posts	Posted 07/21/2017 3:06 pm looks like a nice 63 with a shot, but those vertical luster breaks on head seem very prominent. attractive toning. 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."

Imthealphaomega Pillar of the Community United States 3210 Posts	Posted 07/21/2017 3:09 pm The small gash under the eye, and a V shaped hit to the right of the eye is what worries me. I got it $60 under greysheet on a lucky auction. If it hits a 64 it's a $500 plus piece, plus the extra value of being a top 100 VAM. If I sent it in for reconsideration then it's a new invoice and will cost me more money in the end via insurance and shipping versus just cracking it out and sending it in raw and having it graded with the others and paying for the VAM attribution fee, decisions decisions......

Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 07/21/2017 4:35 pm Agree. Shot 64 perhaps, but the toning may be hiding some flaws that aren't apparent in the pics. Report this Post to the Staff
Imthealphaomega Pillar of the Community United States 3210 Posts	Posted 07/21/2017 4:54 pm I looked throughly, the fields are remarkably clean. The face took the most hits. With the 2 major ones noted there is a little bit of chatter on the lower jaw. Hence why I posted pics cause right now it's a coin flip essentially. I think the nice toning and above average strike along with the clean fields should make it a good case for a 64. Then again I am biased lol. I await more responses. Report this Post to the Staff
moxking Rest in Peace United States 17900 Posts	Posted 07/21/2017 5:45 pm I would like the VAM identification myself. But I wouldn't count on this getting a 64. All in all I would probably keep it as is and be happy to own it. Edited by moxking 07/21/2017 5:46 pm Report this Post to the Staff
