I think the grade is fair in this instance. I can see an argument for a 64 (the plus being for intense luster). The obverse has some marks (I’ve...

63 / 64 / 63 ..right most example looks to have the best luster but the hits in the field likely hold it back
Any gold coin with a gold sticker is fairly scarce. Morgans are more abundant but still not as common as Buffalos, Mercs, and Proof Franklins.
Reveal soon....
People do collect all sorts of things and gold CAC stickers isn't that odd to me (as someone that liked collecting oddball slabs). As far as Gold...
A 62 is baffling. I doubt the luster was that muted to at least prevent a 63 grade (as there is certainly not enough hits/marks to justify the...

I missed this one somehow. I agree that it looks one point lower than the 66 in the other thread.
MS 66 ...looks clean enough for the grade
It is certainly a tricky market. Other dealers (especially at shows) are definitely not the best people to sell them to (eBay and other collectors...
It might not be as strong as originally but it is stronger than it was a 1-2 years ago. I'm seeing common Buffalo nickels and Mercury dimes going...
I finally picked up one of the world coins that I've liked. It's a great design and interesting that it was minted in Philadelphia for Panama....
This is my thought too. I collect toners but don't find this one appealing (others might disagree as we all have different tastes). I'd personally...
I'm not sure what the buy back price is for a Gold CAC but I'm fairly certain it is often below what the coin would bring at auction. Besides...
I'm not the biggest fan of that Morgan...so 3.5
A 65 gold CAC will surpass the price of a 66, especially for common dates. The last 65 gold CAC I watched (1885 in a rattler) sold for $415. The...
Unfortunately there is no way to tell. PCGS likely has that info but they will not release it.
I was too harsh and did misinterpret some planchet marks for hits. I also believe your original photo made some of them look harsher than the...
Yep 1989-1998 if going by the museum of holders page. Gen 2.1 through 3.1 are all some form of OGH (with 3.1 being the most common and longest...
