    20161105_145401.jpg 20161105_145350.jpg OK Let's hear the awww's
    Still a 65 in my book ,and it cost me $25 under list ! Plus the province of the hoard . So for under $ 150. I got a graded Morgan , Raw Peace, a killer teal color 61 proof quarter , and a toned 1913 buffalo with the chief wearing war paint. :)

    No it's actually very much under graded! And that's why I snagged it. He had 6 1880 S all 64 ' s one was an 1880/9.
    This one was the diamond hands down.

    Under graded in my mind, but always harder to judge by photos. Do you suppose that is why the G.S. need to have the coin instead of just a picture ? (LOL )

    Wow, and I consider myself very conservative as a grader...

    Got the grade right but thought it was PL. PL, as far as I go, is near impossible to gauge from a photo with any accuracy.

    Under graded in my book also....as I now have like 9 or 10 1880 s Morgans . Two things made me pull the trigger on this coin ,as I certainly didn't need it. One the price and how it looked in the case. The dealer had 6 -8 of 80's . All graded 64 ' s this one was sparkling compared to the others. BTW all were NGC graded. Two The fields are nearly spotless ,the frosty device's , and strike.
    I also compared it to a few others on the floor. All 64 ' s none held a candle to this one . So just another reason why you buy the coin not the slab.....but must admit the hoard was a clincher. Especially after researching it....
    I do agree images can be misleading and what's is in hand is fact. And the facts are there are 8 other 80's that I have that are 64 ' s that would be sold long before this one.

    Nice job! It's always fun to come home with something like that. Nice job on the bundling too! I love to buy that way, your good buy gets even better on a bundled price.

    Hey we could get our own TV Show. American bundler's!
    It's truly a show about nothing but how to get more for less.....
    Like episode 1 we go out to breakfast, and order the blue plate special . We end up getting a dozen donuts, a large coffee, with refill and the choice of waitress.
    Of course this show won't be contrived. Just two happy go lucky guys...... showing the less fortunate how to get more for less.
    Episode 2 The doctors office ......:nurse: read between the lines. :)

    I ain't touching that. :p

    Fairly graded, and when I say fair, I mean, "buyers should win the battle. " :)

    Grade is accurate but I wouldn't be surprised to see if get a + on a regrade :)

    I'm jealous. You have a very nice 65pl. The grader was too picky this time, but nobody's perfect.

    The grade isn't accurate by any means....I can understand not being able to tell from a photo what one is looking at.....but I can tell you after collecting for the last 55 years that in hand it is grossly under graded.
