As title says, how can the grader know that this is a 1921, it looks so worn. eBay item number: 161274563430 http://www.ebay.com/itm/1921-Morgan..._Individual&hash=item258cb68b66#ht_275wt_1149 *Note: not purchasing any lowballs. Just a question of how can they determine the year if it's completely gone. Education purposes only.
Settle for melt on that one dear fellow (perhaps a trifle less?) Not unless you're assembling some sort of low ball catastrophe in the form of a registry set........
Just curious, not going to collect any of those "lowballs". I don't think they are worth over melt, not sure why even PCGS grades those. I like looking at the detail of a coin and not some slick. Actually just bought an MS 62 slabbed PCGS right now.
The 1921 Morgan had a modified design, so there are probably some indicators remaining on that coin. It looks like you can also see at least a 9 and a 2 of the date.
Maybe it was because of the Parallel Arrow Feathers (PAF) along with other markers. Just recently, we had a discussion about the 1921 Morgan on the NGC forums and how it could be identified from the reverse. It's 3 pages long, and there are some posts you could probably skip, but pay particular attention to the posts of Kurtdog and messydesk. http://boards.collectors-society.com/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=7593251&fpart=1 Chris
Haha Yea I know . I want to get some of different grades so I can distinguish and study them. 62,63,65. I want to learn what makes it a certain grade.
The difference in grade is the amount of bag/roll marks on the coin, the luster of the coin, the strike of the coin, and the eye appeal of the coin.
