Just wondering, did anyone else think this was an 1880-S and not an 1890-S?
You are correct that the 80-S and 81-S are often graded on a curve. But take another look at the date on this one. ;)
It looks like Heritage hires people who write those paragraphs while GC chooses not to (and pass along the savings). My guess is that an...
I believe that's just their model-show the coin and grade with minimal description (or in most cases none). Like @Burton Strauss III mentions,...
Please guess the grade. No poll this time; just free response. [ATTACH]
Returning to this, here are a few examples (I'll only show the toned side; the other side is untoned on all). 1) September 2020 purchase for...
Circulated generic Morgans have risen but I believe most of that has to do with physical silver rather than collecting. They have followed the...
I’ve seen generic Morgans rise significantly. A common date 1881-S in MS 65 was around $100 in late 2019/early 2020. Nowadays they sell for...
I've never been a bulk submitter, so I don't know. Hopefully someone chimes in that knows. I did see someone post that NGC added a $200 (?)...
I'd agree with submitting the 50-D and 56; those two have the nicest overall eye appeal. The others all have some positive attributes but the...
And the answer is MS 66+ ....plus for the color I'm guessing....and I'd say anything in the 65-66+ range would be a fair enough grade [ATTACH]
Reveal tomorrow (Monday) evening...get your guesses in
Looking at recent auctions, it sounds like you did well. This example sold at Stacks recently for more ($1,320) and doesn't look as nice (has more...
8 for me....nice design, a hefty chunk of gold, and fairly clean for a 62....what's not to like :)
I downloaded them and am posting for you @dimeguy ...I think you paid a fair price. And I'd say this qualifies for a better than expected result...
It had several revivals but with limited participation, so it was effectively retired.
Congrats on the grade!
From what I have seen, Anacs straight grades cents with the MS 70 cleaner look.
@dimeguy what did the eBay photos look like? Can you post those? It would be interesting to see those (especially since you mentioned it did not...
MS 62....a few too many hits on the obverse to go higher in my opinion; I like the overall look and if the luster is good, you have yourself a...
