Entering the circulated grades, we have a Gen 6 AU 58 plus AU 55 and a Gen 5 AU 50. This is the first grading tier where I have a gap-the AU 53 is...
MS 65+
MS 66
Those are cool pieces of history. And thanks for sharing the story!
Next up comes a Gen 6 MS 61 and a Gen 5 (1996-1999) MS 60 slab. The interesting thing is that the Gen 5 is fairly close in cert number to the Gen...
The house often does well (as long as they don't win the coins themselves or the reserve is not met). And yes quite a few of these are bought to...
Very nice addition!
Moving along, we have two Gen 4 (1991-1996) slabs. They are somewhat different with the text being more bold on the MS 62 and the reverse logos...
Looking at the link provided, the MS 65 is a Gen 1 from 1989-1990 (ANA issued, predates the purchase by Amos) and the MS 64 is a Gen 6, the last...
Thank you @Pickin and Grinin for the link...that is the best resource that I know of and gives a good history.

Having seen a display at a coin show of a grading set of Morgans in the new yellow slabs, I was inspired to create one of my own. I have long been...
Yes quite a few people have seemingly lost the ability the understand something simple. It is very sad.
MS 66….not full steps (steps under 3rd column are fused together) …and I’m thinking ICG slab
Thanks! I will likely do a thread to detail my progress so far. I am trying to stick to a reasonable budget but it still adds up. It's also funny...
It might upgrade in grade but losing the DMPL is definitely a possibility with the more stringent standards. It would also have to go MS 64 PL to...
Apmex tends to photoshop coins into slab photos. This one isn't as bad as some I've seen but the proportions look off. The Buffalo Nickel looks...
The people that answer the questions on the phone aren't professional graders and you're lucky if they even know a little bit about coins. You...
There is a small premium for these types of mistakes. You can send it back to fix but that might be more work than it’s worth (PCGS customer...
