[QUOTE="johnmilton, post: 4890646, member: 101855"]Over the years I found the grading on the 1907 No Periods $10 gold to wildly inconsistent. The big problem is that the coin was softly struck, and some graders seem to have problems adjusting to that. Here are a couple of examples. NGC gave this coin an MS-61. I think that it is at least and MS-63 with a shot at 64. I ran this one by [USER=24314]@Insider[/USER] at one point, and he generally agreed with me. [ATTACH=full]1180305[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1180306[/ATTACH] This one is a PCGS MS-64, CAC. It has great luster. These coins tend to be found with a satin finish instead of bright luster. [ATTACH=full]1180307[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1180308[/ATTACH] Here is the "standard type" for the design with "In God we trust" added. More changes were made to the design in addition to the motto. Ms. Liberty's hair is more sharply defined. NGC graded this one MS-66. [ATTACH=full]1180311[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1180312[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
