I think that the large majority of Morgans that show toning are bag toned Morgans which will show a rainbow progression on one side with the...
In fairness, I had the MS62 and Unc Details QT mixed up. I thought the 1884-O would grade MS62, but hoped I was wrong and my wish was granted. I...
Pacecar, are you going to divulge the grades soon?
The coin wasn't super lustrous as it had been dipped and the toning you see is from the Dansco I had it housed in for over 5 years, but to equate...
I think it was the reverse crescent in combination with the correct toning correspondence from obverse to reverse that probably tipped the scales.
They do that to me often. I have sent coins that have absolutely no signs of cleaning yet they come back in details holders. I sold that...

I worry about the originality of the toning on some of those coins. Morgan Dollars usually display bag toning which presents as a progression of...
My personal opinion is that war year Mercury dimes need to be in premium gem full band condition in order to be worth certification. The dimes...

MS64, the coin simply has too many problems for a gem grade. Poor strike (especially obverse), bunch of nicks, and the luster seems muted...
This thread makes me feel like finding out about a party that happened a week earlier.
I think it has a decent shot at 5FS but can't say for sure with the photos provided. There seems to be a small nick under the third pillar that...
