Made... POP 1 !! Note the nice upside-down PCGS True View photo art!! 😊 Bought raw at the Kansas City Coin Show.
Made. Bought in an NGC Fr2 holder from Revick at West Coast Coins, and crossed over and downgraded to Pr01. A prime example of what you can find in dealers' inventories.
This is one of the tougher Low Ball Coins in the entire type series! Until this coin was graded Pr01 there were no coins graded by PCGS of the 3 possible No Drapery dates; 38, 39, & 40-O graded in Poor! Found raw on E-bay and listed just as an 1840 Liberty Seated Quarter....?? The seller didn't realize first to list it as a "No Drapery Date", and second, it had to be a New Orleans Mint coin being such even though the reverse was too worn to discern even a partial "O" mintmark! I wondered if anybody else had caught these facts and waited... Another friend in the Low Ball community encountered this same coin and was wondering the same thing! Talk about a Mad Magazine flash back; "Spy vs Spy"! We had to wait until the very last second to see if either of us was the only person who noticed! We both bid strong numbers on the coin, and I was the fortunate winner... The following morning I got the phone call... Did you.....???? 😊

Made... After 2 body bags; "Authenticity Unverifiable" due (?) to no date showing, I pointed out to the Grading Gods that a date is not necessary on certain one-year type coins, per their "Official Grading Guide".... Graded!
Made..!!!! 😊😊😊 Bought Raw at the St. Louis Coin Fair 7 Feb 2020. Basically the last large coin show before the Corona Virus hit the fan. It was late, and the show was about to close, and I was ready to leave, but something told me to peruse the last few tables before leaving... Well, turned out some of the better buys at the show were there, including this perfect Low Ball piece!
Made... FINALLY! This has been a tough one to make! Now I see why the Walker Low Ball set has few coins graded in Poor One with a large portion of the set in Fair, and Ag, and higher...
Fivaz's Worlds Worst Collection. Sold as an Fr2 and should have been a "No Questions" downgrade to a Pr01... Sent in for regrade via their "Guarantee Resubmission" ,and over 2 months later it is finally in a Poor One holder! I'm Mystified; how in the world was this coin NOT graded a Pr01 the first time!?? Especially if you compare it to the Pr01 example used in the PCGS Photograde Guide; Night and Day!

Made! POP 1!! Actually, it was in an NGC holder as a Pr01 without any attribution. It failed to cross over the first 2 times with PCGS. I dare say without the help of the esteemed Mark Borckardt, the coin would not have crossed over! Mark's detailed study overwhelmingly turned the tide... Many thanks Mark!
Made POP 1!! June 2012. The preeminent Mark Borckardt blessed it with the correct attribution; thank you again Mark!
Pogue Collection with CAC Sticker. Catalogued and sold as a Carson City Mint product, but PCGS Holdered it as a "P" Mint. Either way, POP 1. NOTE: I agree with Stack's Bowers that the coin is a Carson City Mint Product; while not cristal clear as with a mint state coin, it "Appears" pretty clearly to be a "CC". Viewers be the judge and leave a comment ya or nay!
