Hi Dennis
As always, I love your photos.
Did you try VAM-3GL2?

Thanks Lee!!
You put me on exactly the right track. My coin is a 'tweener between 3GL1 and 3GL2; it doesn't have any trace of the crack from M to the back of the cap that's seen on 3GL2.

Any suggestions would be appreciated!

Nice stuff. (Although the 95-S is now VAM 6A )

Maybe I should send it in for correction.

The grades of each coin would probably help your effort.

A post over at PCGS said parking in the Convention Center garage is $31/day! Is that for real?

I will contact the Price Guide administrator and advise him of the error.

Does anyone recognize anything here? – Not a lot of scribbles on this coin, but what is there is pretty distinctive. – Lightly double-clashed at neck, but nothing anywhere else. – Big crack through date; several others on reverse. – Line inside ear. – Diagonal gouge in eagle's lower tail feathers. –...

Wow did you cherry pick the triple B?

Please show the entire holder or pouch or whatever is involved, including the coin. That's the only way we're going to know which company graded the coin and start to look up approximately how long ago.

Much more information needed. Please show the rest of the holder, including the coin.

Great 'pick!
The SSDC Value Guide estimates a 63 at $1,500, with no higher grades listed.

Final results after conservation

Congratulations (!!!) on a fantastically tough VAM.

@morganman that was a vam 4 eds ngc62dmpl, and i helped get it from logan to ash. and as been said, pl or dmpl is separate from grade. pl and dmpl has to do with reflectivity. How very interesting. Logan cherried that coin at the November 2006 Santa Clara show. I was there on just the 16th and carr...

PCGS does not accept regrade submissions that have a minimum acceptable grade higher than the current grade. In-holder regrades do sometimes work, but they are an expensive gamble: – postage to get the coin(s) there – $10 handling fee per order – minimum $23 per coin grading fee – minimum $22 per or...
