1892 Barber Half Dollar PCGS MS62 CAC, I grade 63+

CAC approved. Let's do a quick review of MS62. Normally, we would expect some heavy bag marks, possibly impaired luster and dark, possibly unattractive toning. Maybe even all of the above. Most 62's really aren't that pleasing and attractive. Well, sorry to disappoint. Folks, this coin grade MS63+ in my book, with eye appeal to match, and that's the way I priced it. I was dumbfounded when PCGS sent it back in this holder (frankly, I thought 63 was the lowest possible grade, with 63+ likely and even an outside shot at 64), and then I was more than mildly surprised when CAC simply put a Greenie on it. At this grade, Gold should have been a strong possibility.
