Why did you crack it?

AU55-58.

 

I am going to place it in an album for a while.

 

I think AU-57

 

To photograph better pics? :devil:

Agreed......

 

au59

 

I must say every coin I have cracked out did look much better in hand. It is amazing how much you do not realize the holder hides.

The pics are easier too.:yes:

 

Will you guys stop splitting hairs? :devil:

 

I agree they are being rediculous..... au 52 1/2

 

Wow, Why would anyone take a certified coin out of its holder?

 

It's more common than you think. Some don't like it encapsulated, some do it to send it in again for a possible and better regrade, some do it just to stick it in a album like the OP stated.

 

Looking for a better grade or regrade is understandable, but why put it in an Album when It looks beautiful in a case?

 

I can't answer that for the OP. Personally I like them encapsulated too. Especially PCGS holders.

 

Looks even better in a Dansco surrounded by similar coins.

If anybody wants to make a small fortune, you should design a dansco-like album that allows you to keep your coins in the slabs.

 

The reverse looks better than it, the obverse is a bit behind...but I'm goin with a 58.

 

50/53

 

A "small" fortune? I think enough to retire. If you want to invent one, I'll help.

 

Au 55.

 

Au-55.

 

I will post the grade later tonight. And the reason I decided to crack it out.

Thanks for the replies.
