johnnysprawl Pillar of the Community Canada 1618 Posts	Posted 05/13/2020 4:40 pm Poll Question Now that ICCS is acknowledging the Far 2 variety of the 1932 5c, I will be selling one of these. Which one would you sell, more from a resale $ perspective, how it looks, etc. Both are graded the same (F-15). Poll Choices 1932 5c Far 2 - CCCS hard slab 1932 5c Far 2 - ICCS Edited by johnnysprawl 05/13/2020 5:51 pm Report this Post to the Staff

nickelsguy Pillar of the Community Canada 2301 Posts	Posted 05/13/2020 5:26 pm which one is better in hand ICCS coin has what appears nasty scratch going thru ear to field. CCCS coin seems to have fewer. CCCS will not put a problem coin in a hard holder. ICCS will just not note a problem.....rev pics would help Edited by nickelsguy 05/13/2020 5:28 pm Report this Post to the Staff

tamarin Pillar of the Community Canada 576 Posts	Posted 05/13/2020 10:08 pm The CCCS coin has slightly better crown band definition but its fields aren't as good as the ICCS coin but the two are so close. I'm glad to see CCCS correctly identifying the variety. There are still CCCS flips on ebay off and on with the variety misidentified. But both here are nice coins for a very scarce variety. And both have eluded the meter scratches that plague this series. Why not just put two numbers in a hat? Report this Post to the Staff

DBM Pillar of the Community Canada 9862 Posts	Posted 05/14/2020 11:01 pm I think you have a win win situation here. The ICCS coin will sell more readily, there is some resistance to CCCS coins. You get to keep the CCCS coin which is the nicer of the two IMO. "Dipping" is not considered cleaning... -from PCGS website Report this Post to the Staff
