MS 65 ....trueview looks even cleaner and higher grade but they can hide some marks; there might be PL qualities to the coin as well (at least the...
Nice! I bid you much respect. :p
65 5FS ....the steps just make it (a few hits on the steps hurt the grade a bit but don't prevent the steps from being complete)....a hit on the...
66+ 5FS.... there is a scrape on the steps but not enough to prevent the designation and the coin looks better than a 66 but not quite enough to...
It was started by Larry Briggs in 1998. The grading can be hit or miss and the market doesn't really value the slabs above raw pricing (with some...
I decided to look it up and you guessed it right-auctionkings was the seller here.
Most likely enhanced photos but possibly altered surfaces/whizzed. There are several sellers on eBay that take every Morgan with even a little...
It's a self slabbing job by the eBay seller (or someone the seller buys the coins from). There is little to no premium for it since it is fairly...

The photo (especially the obverse) unfortunately implies that either the coin might have altered surfaces or (more likely) that the seller...
@Morgandude11 I looked at GC and noticed that coin has sold 4 times in the span of about 4 years (all in the 66+ holder)! 1) $1,096.88 (Dec 2018)...
3.0 holders are indeed not allowed to be cracked (or crack at the extreme risk of losing a solid premium), :p
It just keeps getting worse. I'm sorry. :(
@jtlee321 the crackout game is certainly a risky (and expensive endeavor). I went from never submitting a coin to trying my hand at several...
12.01 more and at least he wouldn't have had the 5% seller's fee but he got hit with that too.
My example is an older NGC holder that I cracked to send to PCGS. It lost the old holder and CAC; the grade remained the same. I did get a fancy...
Anyone want to share any crack outs that were questionable? Seeing this coin on GC reminded me of one of my own (example to follow in next...

It is @CaptHenway
I think it’s interesting enough to draw a premium. As long as there is no cleaning or altered surfaces, I’d guess you would get a decent amount...
