I think the coin could just barely squeak out a F-12.
Just curious, is the PCGS 1938 D/D Buffalo attributed? I didn't think that they attribued that variety, only the D/S.
Congratulations on your find.
I'm not one who necessarily drinks the "PCGS Kool-Aid" and I honestly feel that NGC is often more consistent than PCGS is with grading. But NGC...
Yeah, they look legit to me. Pretty interesting pieces actually.
Welcome to the forum. Actually one of these 1865 Washingtons was on ebay yesterday, along with an 1828 Peace Dollar, and a silver colored 1851 US...

NGC is certainly on of the top two grading services that slabs coins. I would avoid purchasing them through HSN, as all of their material is...
This will be interesting to see develop, as more and more of these are graded. The great majority of Hard Times Tokens are not graded.
I would normally attend the Baltimore/Washington show, but I'm out in Colorado this summer.
That's an interesting find for something laying in the street. I would take them to a dealer and get melt for them.
There needs to be some sort of way to regulate these self slabbers on ebay. They need to have a separate category for slabbed coins, and only...
There are a few legitimate 69 Morgans out there, both MS and Proof.
Fake Pandas have become a problem in the marketplace.
I would probably send them to ANACS, as you do not have to be a member to submit. Plus, if they happened to have been cleaned in the past, ANACS...
It's a shame that ND86 is gone. ND was a great poster who provided some very valuable information.
With buying Morgan and Peace Dollars, you must be very careful to learn what to look for. Many coins described at PQ Brilliant Uncirculated are...
More than I expected to. ;)
