They shouldn't be grading then. A grader should neither like nor dislike any coin that they are evaluating.
We make our way to coin four. It used to be a slightly older (blue label) PCGS and is now in a new PCGS holder. Please guess the grade from each...
This was a win. The coin started as an NGC MS 61 (no star) and upgraded to PCGS MS 63. A two point bump! I think the 61 might have been a bit low....
Reveal soon; any other guesses beforehand?
If it was blast white, I could see a 62 but for a toned coin with market grading, the 62 was puzzling.
You are right that this type of color shows up more on those common date New Orleans coins as opposed to the earlier San Francisco. I think it...
I've seen a similar color scheme on a few Morgans. I've also had it where I see a coin and think it looks similar to one I've had/seen before (it...
For some reason it has become standard practice to put a premium (in dollar terms) on obverse toned Morgans. There are some that say it is rarer...
Those are some lovely odds and ends with great photos!
Onwards to coin three. It used to be NGC and is now in a PCGS holder. Please guess the grade from each grading company. Note: both the NGC photo...
Winner! Both called it a 64. NGC did not give this one a star, so it was an easy decision to crack. A color bump could have taken it to a 65 but...
Anyone else?
@Mainebill @panzerman @Publius2 are a few people that I can think of that might have some experience with Heritage bidding? I unfortunately don't...
The second coin used to be NGC and is now in a PCGS holder. Please guess the grade from each grading company. Note: both the NGC photo and the...
Given it's close to 24 hours and some might be anxiously waiting for results, here they are: NGC called the coin MS 63 (no star) and PCGS called...
First: AU 55 Second: AU 58 ...both nice coins!
AU 55 ....I believe that I see some wear. That combined with some scattered marks/disturbances in the fields keeps it out of a 58 (despite what...
I revealed the grade above but without a picture (which might be a good strategy to keep people guessing since it is easier to scroll past a block...
