I thought it was already slabbed. The auction says PCGS XF-45 - or at least that is how I read it.
I think it was the reserve. It would be interesting to see where this coin sits in the condition census - I know an XF45 S-127 sold for 10350 in...
A graded MS indian would be nice - I would check with Charmy(the penny lady) to see what she would have that would fit your budget. An lehigh's...
Everything I am watching is going - only a few at high prices. Hoping to win 1 - been outbid on a few coins, but nothing I had to have.
Nice pickups. Can't wait to see larger pictures. Sounds like a fun show.
I can see why - I felt like I gambled on a couple, but when I got them in hand I was very pleased. I know others have had some issues with HJB -...
I can't wait to see it. I love looking at these coins. :)
Your reports are great Charmy. Will I might not be at a show - I do attend vicariously thru your reports. Thanks for the posts.
Well I can answer about the color of the coins, but I do think they started using "something" in the last month or two that makes the toning more...
I thought they were all cool looking, but leadfoot did pick a nice one.
Just wondering what you toner fans thought of the morgans over on hjb. Pretty interesting colors. And I am not looking at the prices. Just...

I am going to say AU58 - the wear make look worse, but it appears to be a weaker strike than the first coin. More luster across some of the lower...
Because he prefers toned or rainbow coins in the NGC white holders. :) Nice results and look forward to some pictures.
How do you know you are getting the same quality? And if you can tell a 70 you should be buying raw and getting a coin graded. :) Save lots of...
Duke - yes I know EAC and I know they are tougher than today's standard. I just have never heard "if you see any wear, then it can't be AU."....
Is that EAC grading? Never heard that. Personally I grade it AU55. Ooops - forgot to add it is a beauty.
Nice little collection! leadfoot already covered how to determine price.
Yes - I can see the L in the hair and in the blow up. Almost looks like something IL can't what the first letter is. Nice pickup Marshall.
As you can see there are a variety of reasons to pick one and it usually boils down to a personal preference. I like PCGS best, but that does not...
