This is an 1883-CC that I got in one of the famous GSA sales for $45, I think. It was in the discard category of excessively baggy and/or toned coins. I sent it to ANACS when it was still part of the ANA, and they graded it MS63/63. Many years later, I sent it to NGC. What grade do you think they assigned to this coin?
Great looking coin, you got a sweet deal on that one!! As far as a re-grade, I'm thinking the same MS63 or MS62!
This is one of those coins that looks a lot better "in hand" than it does in my pictures. I'm posting another picture of the obverse that somehow didn't make it into my original post. I will note that CAC didn't give it a green bean.
I'll post the "reveal" at 8 CST tonight. Thanks for looking and for saying nice things about the coin. I'm not big on toned coins, but I've always liked this one, which is why I've kept it.
Here's the reveal. The coin actually has some reflectivity, but my pictures, taken with an I-Phone 8+, didn't show it.
Just curious, did you submit it in the ANACS graded slab or had you cracked it and submitted without? Thanks
My guess was 65 and it looked semi-pl. I'm a bit surprised with the 66pl, but it could be the picture (and the one point GSA grade bump).
