Am I being a little greedy asking for a regrade? this coin got a ms-67 from PCGS but here is a pic from PCGS with a ms-67+

This coin with the loupe looks mighty good. I guess the price of fees to find out or be satisfied with what I have. Looking at pics of ms-67's on PCGS yuck.. BadThad will set me straight.

For me, I'd just leave it alone. A PCGS-graded MS67 in-hand is better than risking a downgrade to MS66+.

PCGS guarantee's not to down grade coin on resubmission. Just pay regrade fee and they re-slab it or so they claim. Been looking at thousands of pics and this one looks pretty good. Pics are deceiving. Maybe a pipe dream

The spot left of the date, and a small tick straight below the B of liberty are enough for PCGS to get picky.

Just because yours may be nicer than the example they have at 67+, doesn't mean yours will go 67+, nor does it mean the 67+ coin isn'tover-rated.

They are waaaay picky when it comes to anything above a 67, and when it comes to their top pops, well, they protect them. You are falling into their trap in my opinion. If they let a coin into the top pop, and there are nicer coins out there, it gets them submission, and resubmissions. This is where they make their money.

In my opinion, save your money.

I actually had all that cross my mind. They probably don't like to be told they under graded in addition to the spot. If you noticed right away (nothing meant by that) with your experience I know it will be a problem. I always look forward to your responses, as I am led to believe, (don't know, just a feeling) you also submit coins from time to time and more in tune as to what to look for. I will be happy with this and move on.
