No local dealers to speak of..
The cheekbone does seem to be a bit flat..
I got a new phone yesterday I'll take a few more pics and see if I can get a different angle

Too bad the TPG do not elaborate on the rationale for describing it as cleaned. KK |

I know, I wish they would have! I have another submission I'm putting together for anacs may promotion so it's going to be put into there and hopefully will get a better result. Any tips/tricks on cracking out without damaging coin?

Any tips/tricks on cracking out without damaging coin? ANACS slabs are easy to open. If you look on the reverse of it theres a seem at the top if you can flex the slab a little and create enough separation there you can pull the back right off. Otherwise wrap it in a paper towel hit the side with a hammer (wear glasses) once or twice and check it to pull the back off or if it just splintered enough to get the coin out. Repeat as necessary |

Repeat as necessary Don't know how, don't know way ever use a hammer anywhere near a coin! Period!! Just put it in a vise and "slowly" tighten in down a little at a time. Then turn the slab......repeat slowly until it cracks.   Edited by USSID18

Wow, CIA tactics! I just use everyday pliers carefully to crack at the top until it opens. Never had a problem.

That's why I like pliers. Pliers are subtle.

I have a large flathead screwdriver. Stick in the seam along the side and rotate until the slab pops open.

Looks 65RB to me, too, but the originality of the surfaces is best judged in hand, not by photos. If ANACS thought the surfaces were cleaned or altered, it's quite possible you'll get the same result the second time around.
