Unfortunately this was not limited to buying this coin raw, since PSA was WAY WAY over grading these coins and they could be found as PSA 8s, PSA 9s and even PSA 10s !!!
Below is the first pic I used to explain the problem.
Did PSA mend their ways ?? or did those with such coins stop grading and trying to sell them to the general Mantle loving public - HELL NO !
Below is a Mantle blue sold in 2018 where you can actually see the broken back rim laying on top of the coin. Is this a PSA 8 to you ??
Then there is the infamous red orange PSA 10 that I mentioned a few years ago which I will show again below with 40% of the back rim missing.
Which brings me to the coin thats being offered by PWCC today . Its a lime green Mantle 1960 PSA 10 Armour coin and the bidding is already up to $685.
ARE YOU KIDDING ME !!!
Shame on PSA and shame on PWCC for trying to sell this coin as a PSA 10.
The current population of PSA 10 1960 Mantle Armour coins is listed by PSA as 20
So one thing you can be sure of is that there really are no more than 18 PSA 10s in circulation because at least 2 of them should be rated "authentic" NOT PSA 10s !
How did any of these make it by the supposed triple grading at PSA ??
