Default My latest PCGS adventure

Last year about this time I submitted an 1864 three cent silver to PCGS for
grading as a circulation strike. It came back slabbed PR61. I am 100%
convinced it is a circulation strike made from dies which had previously
made proof coins.

I wanted it graded as a circulation strike, so I cracked it out (so as not
to lead the witness) and submitted it as a circulation strike once again. I
just learned that it has indeed been slabbed as a circulation strike -
GENUINE with altered surfaces. Sheesh. But at least this time I got the
main thing I wanted, so life's not all bad.
