1964 Melbourne Penny PCGS MS66RB
This 1964 Melbourne penny is one of the nicest I’ve seen in recent times. If fact, it’s so evenly coloured and glossy that it looks like someone popped it out from the middle of a 2004 one dollar subscription issue (which contained a burnished replica of a 1964 penny in the centre). Out of the 460 individual 1964 Melbourne pennies PCGS has certified, only four have graded MS66RB (December 2013). So don’t scoff at it: It’s tough in this high a grade! Moreover, it’s about a fifth of the price of an MS66RD, the last of which sold for over $3,000 privately in November 2013. Professional Coin Grading Service is the global leader in coin authentication and grading. With over 60 million coins graded and counting, PCGS is trusted by collectors, dealers, and investors to certify authenticity, protect value, and elevate market confidence. This is a direct conversion of the 70-point PCGS grade to a 10-point scale, intended to present the grade in a more intuitive format for newer collectors. It is not our personal opinion or an attempt at regrading the coin to a different standard.
