That doesn’t mean you don’t understand the toner market, I’m sure you do. I used to think that the NGC star designation was silly, then I started...
Many people who buy rainbow toned Morgan’s don’t care if the coin is overgraded with respect to surface preservation. And I purchased and sold...
The top two have what I considered MS65 surfaces but were market graded to MS66* due to the outstanding toning, luster, and resultant exceptional...
HE WAS WRONG!!!!!!! At no time prior to the reveal did he say anything to the effect that his grade is MS63/4 and that he fully expected a much...
I would also like to point out the Heritage Cataloger comments for this coin. "1885-S $1 MS66 PCGS Secure. Frosty luster glistens on each side of...
I'm aware of that, and I don't have a problem with it. I just want him to recognize that he is using a different (more conservative) standard and...
Ok, this is the 2nd time you have posted about this. Let me be clear, I don't care. If someone else, even someone as experienced as @johnmilton...
Again, that is your standard for grading, not the standard employed by the TPGs. Most of the Morgan Dollars I have owned have not been MS66, they...
Do yourself a favor, take 5 Heritage photos of MS64 1885-S Morgan Dollars and compare them to this coin. You will find that this coin is far...
The coin is a solid MS66, you are just salty that you were wrong and that I blew your example out of the water.
The coin ACTUALLY graded MS66, how on Earth could MS67 be a ridiculously high grade?
The closeups on the coin you have selected are deceptive. You can plainly see luster grazes both on the devices and in the fields on the slab...
Luster grazes are not the same as bag marks and don’t affect the grade in the same way. Furthermore, the lighting and photography are making the...
I voted MS67 because MS66+ is not an option on the list.
Jason, can I make a request? Can you post the slab photo with either the label blacked out or cut out in addition to the oversized photos. The...
No, I showed that coin as an example but almost every Barber Quarter I submitted came back 1-2 grades below what I thought they would grade. Here...
Thanks, most people probably don’t know this but I used to collect mint state Barber Quarters and my experience taught me that NGC was very tough...
$1350 I’m saying this coin performed well because the reverse toning pattern mimics “cat’s eye” toning which is highly sought after by toning...
I have similar reservations about this coin as I did the Barber Half. The coin has been dipped which makes it look odd, and the Heritage photo...
Like I said, BLAZING!
