yes, iam at it again, this time I will be offering something super neat from the MPC grab bag, items that are very unique, this time up for review is a 1903 $5 liberty to does get a bit harder however you not only need to tell me the grade but if the coin is CAC certified get both right and something very unique will be own the way to you but if you only get the grade right you will still receive a prize this one will end on Sunday so get your guess in ! good luck
I gonna step it up a hair... MS66+ gold bean cac (had to go gold that pup is right on the 66/67 line in my book but then again I usualy out in left field grading gold) but I don't wanna imagine the price paid for that beauty
MS-66 with a Green Bean. Very nice coin. It has a few tiny nicks but in today's grading environment, I think it got a solid 66 from the TPG and the eye appeal takes it into the Green Bean realm.
When it comes to value CAC stickers are a big deal, if you care about money that is, I have seen up tp a 30% premium over the same grade with a sticker then with out one and the equates to big dollars.
I think everybody's sky high on this. I'll say MS-63 and it has a green bean. I have an 1881-S in MS-62. The luster is awesome and at first glance you'd swear it's a 63 or 64 but I think noise in the fields knocked it down. It's tough to get high grades due to abrasions in the fields and marks even though they look fantastic.
I like this coin allot, however being such a high grade example with what appears to be a scratch on the rear, the expense would not justify the expense. we had several 1/2 guesses who picked the grade right on but only one person who not only got the grade correct but also said no CAC so congrats to our winner @KBBPLL please PM me with your mailing address so I can send out your prize,
