Zurie Pillar of the Community United States 5672 Posts	Posted 06/30/2024 01:41 am Hard to tell the true color since the new photos look different than the original pics. And the color of the 2x2 cardboard is different between the obverse and reverse, suggesting a change in the lighting. I still lean towards questionable color from a chemical treatment many years ago, for the reasons I stated before, but who knows what NGC will say. BTW, I like the strong clashes on the obverse!

panzaldi Bedrock of the Community United States 18670 Posts	Posted 06/30/2024 09:41 am you're hurting my head. I think I'm sticking with MS62RB and hopefully those surfaces were not messed with 1796NoPole not sure you saw my question is there some reason why you would go with NGC vs PCGS? just curious.

1796NoPole Valued Member United States 286 Posts	Posted 08/02/2024 6:29 pm Came back Unc details, altered color. Seems legit to me. Definitely dipped, probably decades ago. Not cleaned. Compared to my MS64RD 1855 HC, the red on this is way less bright. No way to tell from a pic. Report this Post to the Staff
