How high will NGC grade this 1884-CC Morgan?

I'm hoping a 66, what do you think?

Would you leave it in the GSA holder or just slab it?

Slab it in the GSA holder

 

Pictures are slightly out of focus which limits the ability to grade properly. What I can see though is a pretty clean coin. Personally I would leave it in the GSA holder. NGC is the least invasive as far as this goes, PCGS places an encapsulation over the GSA holder which even the most ardent PCGS lovers don't care for.

 

Slab in GSA by NGC. The GSA holders command a premium over the PCGS ones, if they are NGC certified. Doubtful for a 66 based on the contact marks on both sides of the eagle on the reverse, but 65 looks good to me.

 

That is what I am seeing @ possible 65 grades

 

im thinking 65

 

I don't know. I think 66 is in the right neighborhood. I have a few (non-CC's) in MS67 that look similar.

Did you buy the coin this evening on Ebay Germany?
I had a closer look too.......but the coin was out of my reach. Good look....

 

If you think its a 66 it'll come back a 68!

 

Sweet looking GSA Big Tee. I wish the focus was better so I could see the cheek better, but, that is one really clean obverse. Agree with Morgandude about the reverse; however, seems GSA's get a little leeway.

I'll say 66! I'd also go with NGC. You can still use the Blue GSA box when they grade the coin in the holder.

 

One way to find out send it in...and if it's as dull as it looks in photo 65
and do not crack it out

 

I think it has a chance of the 66 I would send it to ngc and leave it in the GSA case.

 

Yea. This will be going in when I get it. I'll be posting a guess the grade on all the coins I'm sending in within the next week or so.

 

Send it in the holder to ngc hard to tell from the pics looks very clean. If it was a 80-s I'd say 65 being a cc I'm gonna say 66 hard to tell about the luster from the pics tho

 

His pictures did a good job hiding some of the bag marks

What do you think now?
