My PCGS voucher was running out running out, so my older friend ( very damaged vision) who was in the same boat asked me to do the paperwork, and we could share a 'world voucher' and a 'US voucher" since we couldn't mix or match. he wanted to send some 5p peso Mexican gold in, so I went through a couple of dozen and weeded out the circulated ones. So he sent in a 1930, a 1947 old die, and three 1947 New Die restrikes. and I added one 1947 (old die) , a Mexico 20 peso gold, and a 100 Balboa Panama 1975-FM ( Franklin mint made them for Panama. Here is his 1930 : and his 1947 old die received PCGS MS64, and here are the 3 restrikes! And my 3 gold : So as not to make a duplicate thread, here are my US. This $10 I bought from Matt, Lostdutchman, Thanks Matt! And the '77 came from ebay years ago. And I mentioned in the 'ICG grading thread that I was breaking these out of ICG ( 65RD and 64RD) and submitting, and they crossed over on the positive side. I also had one Morgan $, that over 30+ years changed from a white to this, and one coupon space to fill, so I sent it off Ahh, market acceptability Jim
GGGGGOLD! Nicely done, Jim! Too bad about the Morgan though...it would have been different if PCGS knew whose coins they were grading. But everything else looks nice & high grade, especially the ICG cents! I have 12 coins out with PCGS right now & hope they come back as nice as yours....1 of mine will go "genuine" for sure too.
very nice! I used to own a 20 peso, beautiful coin with lots of detail, want to own another one someday!
