But the work involved to get NGC to accept the PCGS coins is extensive -- a real pain in the neck. I started to do it and then gave up.
As for that, I don't like it. I'm trying to look at an image for details and it keeps changing. Can't see what i want to see.
Morgan dollars were struck from 1878 through 1921 with a big gap from 1905 through 1920. Trade dollars were struck from 1873 through 1885.
I would have said Intercept Shield.
I keep coins I buy for my Birth Year Set to under $15 since it's a "fun" set. Therefore those coins grade in the Fine to Extra Fine range. BUT...

My coin is moving through PCGS quickly. -- Saturday I mailed it. -- Monday it got to California. -- Tuesday PCGS picked it up. -- Wednesday it was...
