Grading coins from pics Round 1

You know, that dime looks like it has some color that isn't showing in the pics. I REALLY REALLY like it! Looks like it came out of a Mint Set. Oh, and nice die crack on the reverse of the Morgan!

Thanks it is a pretty nice looking dime, but not really any color other than the tan/brown.

 

#1: Ms62
#2: Ms66
#3: Ms65

 

So it seems the majority consensus is that editing posts will/should not make a difference. I am not going to penalize for editing posts. Unless the editing is done after the actual grades are posted at the end of the round.

 

Coin #1 pcgs ms63
coin # 2 pcgs ms65 fs
coin #3 ngc ms 66

I see this one is going to be fun!

 

Thank you Mr. Kavanaugh learning is exactly what I am here for. Maybe I should save my comments.

 

1. Ms63
2. Ms63
3. Ms64

 

#1- MS 62, Just a little to much going on in this one for a higher grade
#2- MS 65. Fulll Steps, Nice coin
#3- MS 63, Little to weak of a strike for a higher grade

All of this is just my opinion and beleive me it doesn't count for much, just ask my wife

 

1) ms62
2)ms64
3)ms66 (proof?)

I grade by the gut!

 

1 ms65
2 ms63
3 ms64

 

Okay , I'll take my shot. 1) MS 60 2) MS 65 3) MS 62

 

Okay, here we go...

1878 $1: MS63
1940d .05¢: Ms65
1956 .10¢: Ms65

Into the devil's den..ignoring a VAM or other varieties..I am going with 65 or a strong 64. The
strength of the stamp moved me to this opine. IE..very nice bust on OBV and the eagle is same..Tony67

 

On this coin..again..ignoring varieties..IE..doubling on STATES..the obv. is very nice in this photo..the rev. makes me guess this nickel is strong 65..Tony67
The variety possibilties on the dime are intriguing..but sticking to the mission so to speak..I would say 66 or 7..possibly higher..very nice..thank you..Tony67

Just waiting on these 5 to move to the next round...
Thanks for participating everyone.....

 

Thanks for the contest and to help sharpen up our skills.

Morgan - AU50

Jefferson - MS66

Roosevelt -MS67

 

So what's the grade of each for those that didnt make it?

 

This round will close on Wed. Anyone who does not have their grades posted will be disqualified and we will then move to the next round.

 

Skidding in under the wire -- sorry, folks...

Morgan -- MS62 (was considering 61 here). Nice luster, but it fell in with the wrong crowd.

Jefferson -- that looks stunning, but I'm thinking those horizontal strikes above Monticello are actually on the coin, not on the holder, because of the color of the highlights from them. So I'm going lower here, MS64.

Roosevelt -- I'm stuck here. I don't see anything that looks like actual wear, and I don't see any obvious marks, but that reverse is incredibly weak. I have no clue how a TPG would weight that. Uhh... MS62?
