Part 2 on my 1920 S- PCGS 64 BN. My coin went to the Boss Rehab Clinic.

    Paid $80 for this coin, did my rose thorn and oil thing- It had a ton of grime on it but I never took a pre-photo unfortunately. Sent to PCGS and came back 64 BN. Don't know the exact value for a BN coin but 63 RB is $250 and 64 RB is $500. I'd say due to strike and eye appeal it would get over $300. I paid $80 because it was an ugly coin with grime all over it.

    Here is the previous post: http://www.cointalk.com/forum/t45914-3/

    I reread that post and it was interesting. Any comments welcome!

    First, you link has one too many http in it.

    Doug called it a 64 in you original post - uncleaned.

    The biggest difference I see between then and now is that you are taking better pics now.

    As for price, Heritage just sold a NGC 64 BN for $207, PCGS for $299 and a NGC 63 (not a typo) BN for $322. I think you will find the prime price driver is the amount of red, not the grade.

    Aside from all the crap I am giving you, nice coin! That got you more than a couple point on the NGC scale.

    Thanks RLM. Spock called it too, and maybe a few others-AJ said 62/63 but as Spock pointed out it AJ undergrades to the the benefit of his customers. I fixed the http problem, thanks

    Also it's in a PCGS slab. I am not sure what you meant by this: "That got you more than a couple point on the NGC scale". It's in a PCGS slab.

    64 brown is 1223 points on the NGC registry scale and they take both NGC and PCGS coins.

    Wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I didn't know that. I am number 50 something. All I need is a 65 S VDB to catch you on the points :thumb::eat::eat::high5:
    I actually have about 5-6 coins I haven't put in yet, so I will input into NGC and see where I am at.

    65 S VDB won't make it. Now, a 69* RD will, but good luck finding one.

    Thanks Thad. I think the regular crew took the day off today. I expected more responses. I suppose I should be off this silly computer and hanging out with my family. Signing off for now.
