paralyse Bedrock of the Community United States 12057 Posts	Posted 03/24/2023 9:35 pm You sure this isn't a proof strike? Some of the proofs did have weakness in the head strike. Well, I guess PCGS would know for sure, right? Overall appearance resembles an 1856 I have with nearly identical album toning that came back AU50 for unknown reasons Can't see any wear on this one.

Jester Valued Member United States 210 Posts	Posted 03/24/2023 10:16 pm You hit the nail on the head Paralyse. It did indeed come back as a proof strike. I did not think it was when I sent it in. I'd rather it have been a business strike for sure. Only 800 some odd proof were made but this one only came back PR62. Oh well! I did have another one come back a way higher grade than I was expecting so it evens out. Report this Post to the Staff
paralyse Bedrock of the Community United States 12057 Posts	Posted 03/25/2023 12:27 am 62 is fair! I kind of suspected it was a proof. Very nice, congrats!

Jester Valued Member United States 210 Posts	Posted 03/25/2023 07:31 am Yeah I'm still really happy with this coin. All in all, it's been a really good experience sending them into PCGS. The first round I sent 11 in two batches and 6 are on their way back now, anxiously awaiting the other 5 because it includes my favorite coin 1870 quarter. Trying to be patient. But they've been sitting in QA for a couple weeks so someone must not agree. The batch that included this one spent about a day and a half in QA before loading grades and shipping.

panzaldi Bedrock of the Community United States 18664 Posts	Posted 03/25/2023 09:39 am i would be happy with a PR62 straight grade. I think the coin probably would have graded 63 however the surfaces are quite dull and the toning is not helping with the grade when it comes to eye appeal nice call paralyse Report this Post to the Staff
Jester Valued Member United States 210 Posts	Posted 03/25/2023 11:25 am Here is the TruView pictures for this 1884 PR62. I feel like the TV make them seem so much darker and moodier than they really are. Report this Post to the Staff
