Owner's Description

This is a real beauty - large brown seal and a 64. Interestingly, it came out of a CGA 67 holder. When I bought it, I was expecting a downgrade on the crossover to PMG, but I was hoping for a one or two grade downgrade at most. It ended up a three grade downgrade. What is most disappointing is I expected the note to be problem free in a 67 holder. PMG noted small tears, but did not give it a net grade. I can't find them, but they must be there. Despite these issues, I am keeping it and it is an interesting story. For the price I paid, it was still a good deal. Ebay December 2012.
