"Guess the Grade" PCGS 1880-S Morgan S$1

Probably shouldn't have worded it that way, Zach. I plan on bidding and hopefully winning, but not thinking anyone else would bid 63 money or higher. Now, I suppose that has all changed, hasn't it?

ahhhhk whats that phrase???? "opening up a can of worms" I do believe?? well Brian all i can say is sorry for blowing your cover and i hope that you win....i voted MS-66 before all of this and i feel that this would be a wonderful coin to have (as a fellow morgan lover MS-63 is my favorite grade , for obvious reasons )

 

:foot-mouth: Now it's gonna cost him more money, snipe set :devil:

 

Who says I'm still going to bid now that my plan's been foiled?

-Brian

 

everybody: prepare for an epic psychological battle until the bidding ends. I'll bet 25 bids withing the last 60 sec

 

Lol! That oughta make the seller happy.

Of course it matter the "easy year" or a "key date" the TPG'ers MARKET GRADE.
If it was a CC it's would get a bump.
And as you can see I was one of the 6 that got the grade correct.
I do think in a new holder it would get 64 or a 63+ but if you look at the zoom of that picture that cheek is too big of a hit to go high.


Price is grade.
Grade is Price.

 

I'm guessing you paid around the MS63 price for it? It's a beautiful Morgan, & based on those pics, I'd probably guess MS65. But I wouldn't spend the $$ to have PCGS grade it again--my experiences with them have led me to believe that paying PCGS to grade coins is often just (expensive) gambling, as their grading is so whimsical. (My opinions).

If it were a much more expensive coin, might be worth it, but it's not. Plus it's got that cool OGH holder.....Just enjoy the coin as is, I say....
