PCGS does that all the time. It does have marks on the cheek but next submission and it could get MS63, you just never know with them. I had a large cent that should have graded at least MS65 but they graded it MS63, after I cracked it out and resubmitted it was graded MS64.

I posted about it here viewtopic.php?f=11&t=9165&hilit=1854+large+cent

Nice one MikeV. I have a question :confused: about the shield on the reverse. What is causing the separation lines on the bottom point and lower left side (2 separation lines?) of the shield? Also hard to tell if there are lines or thickness on the left side (west) of the upper leaves on the right side?

it's important to learn "WHAT" coin grading is....
...this has become one of the most mis-understood issues in collecting.

i would recommend that individuals read the "entire section" on coin grading,
from each of the providers...yep, it will take some time, but ...
:eureka:
.....& a "grade", is an "opinion" of that individual grader.....OF OVERALL EYE APPEAL
