eddiespin Pillar of the Community United States 1547 Posts	Posted 03/31/2011 4:54 pm Here's one I wanted graded but I put here because it's a D/D. Please opine on the D/D but please understand that doesn't mean you're off the hook on the grade. Thanks. Report this Post to the Staff

liveandievarieties Pillar of the Community United States 601 Posts	Posted 03/31/2011 5:00 pm I will never let myself be held to a grade given from a digital image, but your photos are good- I'd expect a grade of MS-63 RD from PCGS....but- this isn't a coin I'd personally slab. RPM #1 is a fun coin, AKA FS-501. But it doesn't fetch significant premiums until you hit grades of MS-65 Red or better, so you'd honestly take a loss on the cost of certification. Fun variety though, I love getting to see REAL varieties, damaged coin posts get boring! Report this Post to the Staff

acloco Pillar of the Community United States 3540 Posts	Posted 03/31/2011 7:28 pm Nice pics! I would actually grade it 61 RD, just because of the spotting. Wrong?...probably on my part. Wish copper did not spot like that. Report this Post to the Staff
eddiespin Pillar of the Community United States 1547 Posts	Posted 03/31/2011 8:01 pm Actually, IMHO, we can never be "wrong," if we know the parameters, and are in the MS grades. Provided that, it's just how one set of peepers sees it vs. another. PS: Thanks for your honest appraisal. Report this Post to the Staff
