garylcsr Pillar of the Community United States 1952 Posts	Posted 06/16/2008 2:42 pm I like that too but I am not sure how it got a grade of VF-30. something looks wrong to me but I am also not an error guy. maybe Chuck will have time to look but I think I would wait to find out from one of the error guys before I jumped.

pyrbob Rest in Peace United States 1943 Posts	Posted 06/16/2008 2:51 pm Just last month an NGC AU-55 1956 cent struck on a dime planchet sold in a Heritage auction for $575 after buyers premium. The Heritage auction prices are usually a little high. The grading is tougher on these because a dime planchet is thinner than a cent planchet so the detail will not strike up. They look weak from the start. Good luck with the decision. Report this Post to the Staff

pyrbob Rest in Peace United States 1943 Posts	Posted 06/16/2008 6:42 pm But the photo is taken thru a plastic slab. The slabs scratch easily so it could just be on the plastic and not on the coin. It does have a 3 day return priviledge. I wouldn't give up on the coin because of the hairlines if I really wanted one of these. Report this Post to the Staff
Pennypusher Valued Member United States 486 Posts	Posted 06/16/2008 10:02 pm It sold for 500 bucks! For $100 more I could have bought that AU one on Heritage. Thanks for the input everyone, PP Report this Post to the Staff
