Most likely enhanced photos but possibly altered surfaces/whizzed. There are several sellers on eBay that take every Morgan with even a little...
It's a self slabbing job by the eBay seller (or someone the seller buys the coins from). There is little to no premium for it since it is fairly...
66 5FS is what I'd grade it but based on the order, I went with "other"...I think NGC might have given this one "Unc Details" like your last one...
The photo (especially the obverse) unfortunately implies that either the coin might have altered surfaces or (more likely) that the seller...
@Morgandude11 I looked at GC and noticed that coin has sold 4 times in the span of about 4 years (all in the 66+ holder)! 1) $1,096.88 (Dec 2018)...
3.0 holders are indeed not allowed to be cracked (or crack at the extreme risk of losing a solid premium), :p
It just keeps getting worse. I'm sorry. :(
@jtlee321 the crackout game is certainly a risky (and expensive endeavor). I went from never submitting a coin to trying my hand at several...
12.01 more and at least he wouldn't have had the 5% seller's fee but he got hit with that too.
My example is an older NGC holder that I cracked to send to PCGS. It lost the old holder and CAC; the grade remained the same. I did get a fancy...
Anyone want to share any crack outs that were questionable? Seeing this coin on GC reminded me of one of my own (example to follow in next...

I think it’s interesting enough to draw a premium. As long as there is no cleaning or altered surfaces, I’d guess you would get a decent amount...
I can see MS 66 and will guess around $5,000 (could be more with recent pricing...note: I have not seen this coin...it might be in an auction I...
MS 62....I'll say it's a 55/62 slider that had enough luster to carry it into MS territory
I'd normally go MS 65 5FS but based on this order, I went MS 64 not FS ....the steps are close but I'm guessing the graders were less tolerant of...
It looks nice for a 64 (I was being super conservative with my 63 guess). Is there a chance for a 65? There might be if the coin has no hidden...
Looks like NGC has entered a conservative period of grading
Looks like an older NGC holder, so I will say MS 63 ...I could see it being higher as the fields look nice and it has appealing toning
