Sap Moderator Australia 16806 Posts	Posted 03/11/2023 10:06 pm This coin is quite badly scuffed up - I'm not sure it would grade MS. Definitely not MS-67. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff

Quote: and my guess an ms 67 or better Politely suggest that you should so some additional study on grading - especially if you are considering sending coins to an expensive TPG for their views and encapsulation.
