<p>[QUOTE=&quot;timewaster1700, post: 3458886, member: 101305&quot;]So I recently acquired a couple raw peace dollars, a 1926-P and a 1924-S. I&#039;m trying to determine if these coins are worth sending in to PCGS. I was hoping to get some more seasoned eyes on these to see if the coins have any danger of making AU instead of MS. Also for what its worth I would essentially need a MS-65 out of the 1926 and a MS-63 out of the 1924-S in order for it to be worth sending in as far as values go.</p><p><br /></p><p>Here are a couple videos I took to try to show these coins and their details:</p><p>1926:</p><p>[MEDIA=youtube]EQfdOsL_LjE[/MEDIA]</p><p>1924-S:</p><p>[MEDIA=youtube]Cwl83RFaqqg[/MEDIA]</p><p><br /></p><p>For the 1926, it has a layer of toning on it (almost like dust or something) and that may be impairing the brilliance of the luster. I can&#039;t really see any &quot;wear&quot; persay but there are a bunch of hairline scratches on the left field of the obverse and on Liberty&#039;s cheek. These are what have me wondering if this might bump down into AU. I need a more seasoned person&#039;s eye on this. The reverse of the coin has a couple small dings in areas that don&#039;t seem very noticeable to me so otherwise it seems to be a very nice coin without distracting hits that many other coins have.</p><p><br /></p><p>For the 1924-S it is obviously poorly struck which is normal for this year. It has a bunch of contact marks too. Its really hard to tell if the luster is gone anywhere on these San Francisco coins. I&#039;ve noticed poorly struck coins don&#039;t seem to have as much luster to begin with so its not as easy to see.</p><p><br /></p><p>Any advice and opinions are welcomed. Thanks![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
