Not feeling that one. Even Trueview still makes it look cleaned.

Trueview still sucks. Btw, no hairlines in hand and it had some residual luster.

First set of pics on ebay was washed out but I am confident in my ability buying from bad pics. I expected a 50/53 so my guess was in line with PCGS.

although TV photos rarely shows what the coin actually looks like in hand. your in hand photos really make the coin washed out. I was hoping it graded straight and it does so

If I had the coin in hand, I would've posted them already lol. It just shipped from PCGS, I'll post when they are here.

i think they give these a lot of leeway unless the coin looks heavily cleaned

PCGS true view images are worse now that their head photographer is at Great Collections. My recent submission images all came back way more yellow than they are in hand.
