NorthWestInvest Valued Member Canada 97 Posts	Posted 07/16/2018 08:04 am Hey CC family! I swear I'm not incompetent with all these grading questions. I've expanded my collection and I would like to start collecting higher grade coppers but I find they are substantially harder to grade than other coins. Can I have everyone opinions on this guy? Much appreciated! Report this Post to the Staff

TheCoinHunter Pillar of the Community Canada 1461 Posts	Posted 07/17/2018 11:35 am Even if they did, they would never give it RED, not even RB so It's questionable. I don't even see holder marks at the edges. Report this Post to the Staff
NorthWestInvest Valued Member Canada 97 Posts	Posted 07/19/2018 11:53 am I was attempting to purchase this. The seller stated this was removed from a PCGS Ms-64 RED slab but I can't obtain photos of the slab. This isn't my coin. I passed on it. I am new to large cents and was going to purchase this around MS book value but things didn't work out. The seller is a very trusted collector who I see his name come up dozens of times a day as an honest guy! Thanks for all your opinions, was very helpful. Report this Post to the Staff
