<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Jaelus, post: 2424485, member: 46237&quot;]I&#039;ve been working on a classic Hungarian type set for many years now, along with a date set for Austro-Hungarian Corona/Korona. Here are the results from my latest world submission to NGC for my Austro-Hungarian set, along with my grade estimates before submission.</p><p><br /></p><p>I feel like NGC is a little hard on grading coronas, and PCGS is too lenient. I have literally never seen a corona in a PCGS slab that I didn&#039;t think was a point overgraded.</p><p><br /></p><p>The Austro-Hungarian Corona/Korona was minted from 1892 through 1916 and was equivalent to a silver quarter dollar. Both Austria and Hungary each had 3 types (a younger bust, a commemorative, and an older bust) during the run for this denomination. Common dates for these coins are typically obtainable in grades up to MS63 without too much trouble. It becomes harder to find examples at MS64, and gem examples are extremely scarce.</p><p><br /></p><p>For my set, I am going for the highest grade of both MS and MSPL that I can find for each date, and I have been pursuing upgrades aggressively.</p><p><br /></p><p>These are my submissions for my Austro-Hungarian Corona/Korona date set in this NGC batch:</p><p><br /></p><p><b>Austria Corona KM 2804</b></p><p><b>1895</b></p><p>My grade: MS64</p><p>NGC: MS64</p><p>[ATTACH=full]502788[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]502789[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p><b>Austria Corona KM 2804</b></p><p><b>1899</b></p><p>My grade: MS64</p><p>NGC: MS64</p><p>[ATTACH=full]502790[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]502791[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p><b>Austria Corona KM 2804</b></p><p><b>1901</b></p><p>My grade: MS64</p><p>NGC: MS64</p><p>[ATTACH=full]502792[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]502793[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p><b>Austria Corona KM 2804</b></p><p><b>1903 (Better Date)</b></p><p>My grade: MS65</p><p>NGC: MS64+</p><p>[ATTACH=full]502794[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]502795[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
