Message:: [QUOTE="TexasMom, post: 1165647, member: 27730"]We picked up some interesting coins this week & are trying to figure out whether or not they're worth having regraded by PCGS. The main one that we're interested in is an 1880 Morgan graded by NCGS at MS66. I've been scanning through VAM's, but I'm still too new to this to understand what I'm looking for. On my coin, I see a blob on the reverse "G" in GOD... The "A" and "R" in DOLLAR appear to be doubled...The "L" in DOLLAR also seems to have a blob. The "S" in PLURIBUS also appears strange. The first 8 on the date looks odd. Here's the VAM list that I found <a href="http://www.vamworld.com/1880-P+VAMs" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.vamworld.com/1880-P+VAMs" rel="nofollow">http://www.vamworld.com/1880-P+VAMs</a> , but none seem to mention these blob like issues. Any assistance is appreciated. I've tried several times to use my scanner to scan the coin in, but the plastic case seems to be causing a reflection issue. I'll post pics when I figure out a solution for that.[/QUOTE]
