<p>[QUOTE=&quot;frattlaw, post: 773851, member: 22314&quot;]A couple of years ago I bought 5 raw 1934-D Peace $ off Ebay. I think I paid about $180 for them.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Low and behold all 5 coins are the King of Peace $ VAM-4 Small DDO...</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I drop off the coins at a Long Beach show for grading and 4 come back MS. One even comes back MS-64. Top pop...</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>One coin comes back in an NSC as AU Details Improper Cleaning...</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Now all 5 coins looked exactly the same. I couldnt see any evidence of cleaning prior to submitting them. All of them had a nice original patina. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I sell off 4 for a very nice profit. I kept the one in the NCS slab. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>This VAM in AU sells for $75.00 or so. In MS-62 it goes for $1275 and in MS-63 it goes for $2650. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>What would you do ? Sell it as is in the NCS? Crack it and sell it raw ? Crack it and resubmit ? Crack it, dip it and ______ (fill in the blank)</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Or should I just keep this ultra rarity in case I want to do a Peace $ VAM set someday. Only 25 have been graded by NGC and only 8 are MS.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
