Only if it's a grade of MS64 or higher in my opinion.

 

I think it is higher than that grade wise.

 

That's about $100 too much unless it's a 64+.

 

Can't get a good idea of what the grade may be, pic isn't that great.

 

Nope but at the current price, it might be worth the gamble.

 

what grade is it????

 

I'd say about a MS65+ 64 at the least.

 

Got pics of the one you're considering?

 

No I don't.

 

Well, if you trust your grading judgement, $325 isn't a horrible price, not the best but if it's a definite MS65, then it's definitely worth it in my opinion.

 

Unless you are an expert grader (and without being able to examine the coin in-hand - which would make you better than any grader I know), it seems like an unwise gamble.

 

Actually I did look at it in hand.

 

I highly doubt the coin's grade will fall under the category of MS64+/65. The majority of these GSA dollars are "Unc." (MS62/63). But, then again, we'd need to see a few photos to be certain.

If I were to purchase a common-dated (84-CC let's say), uncertified GSA dollar w/out a photograph, I wouldn't pay a dime over $200.

That's certainly a big plus. But previously, you wrote "I'd say about a MS65+ 64 at the least." That amounts to a significant gap in potential grades for the coin. And it sounds like a 64 would make it a bad deal.

 

I would say the auction finished for average price. Most 1884 GSA CC Morgans go for around that price ungraded.

 

No clue. I can tell you the ones answering the question have saved me a lot of money in the past. One thing I would like to mention is that your brain is designed to process 3 billion thought processes in less than one second. It is a form of energy conservation that people wrongly refer to as "irrational behavior." After some research, I say roll with your gut sir.

 

The OP wasn't buying the auction pointed out though.
