    Unfortunately the coin probably wasn't worth the grading fees to begin with, but definately not worth resubmitting.

    Novice grader here, looking to learn as much about grading as I can. I started with my best impression of a grade, then compared to PCGS photograde online and split the difference. My first impressions didn't change by more than about a single grade. (I didn't look at other people's grades either!)

    Morgan - MS63
    Nickel - MS64
    Dime - MS66


    Edit
    Holy crap - I just now looked at the answers, honestly! I can't believe I was so close! Beginner's luck

    which coin has a weak strike? I am curious.

    Most people that missed the Roosevelt did so because the toning hides a lot of the detail. This coin came from a Mint Set and the toning from the packaging is apparent to an experienced eye.
