I don't know much about ANACS grading standards but when PCGS or NGC give an MS62 grade to a coin with surfaces that are obviously better than...
By Morgan Dollar standards, that is like a 3.0.

Coins are now included in managed payments, this is my first week in the program, but so far, it is much slower than Paypal but a little bit cheaper.
How about now?
