I have never had much luck going back the second time with NGC or PCGS.
Many years ago ANACS would sometimes send a note back with coins with PVC contamination. It said that the coin might grade if the PVC was removed...
I seem to be using the Ctrl key and the scroll wheel more and more.
You are correct. I did not give an opinion of the other two coins you posted in this thread. They look nothing like the topic coin. I trust that...
Really nice coin. Looks like a 64 to me.
I thought you wanted opinions? My opinion is that the OP coin does not look right. If you like the coin, that's fine but I don't.
I'm talking about the first 1911 in the NNC holder.
The image of the 1916 is out of focus. Can't see any luster. The image of the 1911 is pretty good. The surfaces look dead. It has been worked on.
I would soak it for an hour or so and change out the acetone and soak it again.
They will take money orders but only on Tuesdays.
I'm seeing little to no luster. I don't feel it would straight grade at NGC or PCGS.
Fun to collect but there are a lot of expensive coins in the series. There are also many problem coins out there. I would aim at a well matching...
You could just use a modern dime in the hole with a sticker on it.
I'll go with 66 as well. Nice coin.
It's going to be different from one dealer to the next. Some may have a place to go with it and will pay a bit more. Others may not wish to mess...
That's what makes it fun.
I agree with XF45. Too much wear for an AU.
Just sent you 20 boxes of coins. I wrapped each coin in a $20 bill. Let me know how much more I owe you for the grading.
Good point. As a business you would need to get it right. Someone would start a thread about it if you got it wrong.
I don't know anything about these but would it actually take a book to attribute it? The internet is such a powerful tool. As much as I love...
