I still question what the grader looks at to give an error coin a Mint State grade. This is an MS63 Red Reverse Die cap. ANACS Certification 1245980  ANA ID: 3203813 - CONECA ID: N-5637 Clean a coin that may be worth collecting? Please DON'T! When in doubt, leave it dirty!!

Wow that's a beauty! Incredible piece. This is the die cap itself right?

Nice example! I suppose they look at number of strikes / damage?  |

Have you tried to email them the question? I am guessing they graded it by the reverse,the strike of the steps and columns maybe? John1  |

Maybe it was graded mint state because the submitter was a mint employee.  "If you climb a good tree, you get a push."

Great example! No obvious damage from circulation, thus still in mint state.

fantastic coin! I like Tunnioc's explanation of grade too.
