1870 Liberty Seated Quarter Opinions

I doubt the customer service will be able to tell you anymore then that. They probably thought the tone was off. I like it... crack and resubmit.

Here is the True View for this one. I really do not see what they are looking at. In looking at other MS 1870's on their site, they all have the same sort of frosty look and most have the same look on the gown. I think I will try sending it elsewhere instead.

I agree panzaldi, it's just kind of a pain when they don't take enough time to look into it or compare to others they've graded. Maybe if I just send it in at a higher tier like Express, they would take it more seriously. Honestly if it grades what I think it should, it would need to be express anyways. Or even try onsite grading for it.
thanks for the insights, always appreciated.

It's an image so I can't copy/paste the text and I'm too lazy to type it out. Note that they specifically discuss lacquer, so maybe that's it. I don't see it on your coin, but I didn't see it on one of my coins either. They're not the infallible service they claim to be, so perhaps submit it somewhere else like ANACS and pick their conservation service. PCGS graded my coin cleaned. ANACS removed the lacquer and straight graded it. Yours is a mid 4-figure coin in MS65 as I'm sure you know, and I certainly wouldn't be satisfied with not knowing what the heck they think is wrong with it.
