ElmerFlick Valued Member United States 110 Posts	Posted 03/25/2021 12:40 am Anyone have any thoughts on why this received only a F12 grade from PCGS? It did get a CAC green label which seems to be a no-brainer. Thanks in advanced! Report this Post to the Staff

westernsky Pillar of the Community United States 7621 Posts	Posted 03/25/2021 01:32 am Weakness in the date and overall eye appeal holds this coin back from a higher grade in my opinion. F-12 looks about right to me. Report this Post to the Staff
sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21788 Posts	Posted 03/25/2021 01:53 am In almost all instances (not always), the TPGraders get it reasonably close to right, fair and reasonable. I agree with westernsky. Report this Post to the Staff
smat45 Pillar of the Community United States 2334 Posts	Posted 03/25/2021 04:29 am I'm not a collector of these...but just going from PCGS photo-grade (not always the best examples). Going from F-12 to F-15 there are such subtle differences. As was mentioned...the Date is a little softer...the Shin looks flatter and wider...the Eagles wing does not display more detail closer to the body. The only argument I could make for F-15 is the Rim on yours is nicer than the F-12 photo-grade comparison. Still a desirable 1/4 in F-12! smat Report this Post to the Staff
