    Haven't received this yet but just won on ebay. These pictures are the sellers but pretty good. What do you think about the coin and grading company.

    I am not familiar is NES. I think PCGS and NGC are the top coin grading companies but I could be wrong on that.

    The coin is nice, but slim chance it is a MS67
    Never heard of that grading company before...
    Post better pics, once you get the coin in hand
    And don't get your hopes up too high... This is not a MS67...
    Just be careful buying on ebay, it is all common sense :)
    Next time, I'd buy from a Top TPG... :D
    Good luck

    Looks like a nice Morgan. I definitely wouldn't trust the MS67 grade. NES isn't one of the companies I would trust either.

    I wouldn't trust their grades at all.

    The pictures are too bright to get a good look at the coin. NES is not a reputable grading service so I would assume the coin is overgraded. You won't know what you got until you get it in hand.

    However, best guess is the coin appears to be MS from the pics but it is really hard to tell. I can see some clear bag marks. Assuming the coin isn't damaged in some way and not too bagged up...I don't think you did too bad for $43. But, it's really hard to tell.

    It looks like you got yourself a MS coin, although that flash is trying to hide a few things
    MS62-64 at best ;)

    I agree with tmoneyeagles it'll prob. fall into the 62-64 range

    Yeah. Looks like it could be a 64. Nearly impossible to tell from those pics though.

    I will post better pics when I receive it. And, may have it regraded by a more reputable company.

    It looks like NES 's favorite grade is MS-67 , I agree it's probably a 61-63 .

    I don't think they had labels printed with anything less than 67, did they??
