Hi everyone, new to this forum. Been collecting Morgans and Peace for the last 2 years and picked up a 1900-o. Studied up on the counterfeits http://www.coinresource.com/news/news2005/pcgs_declares_counterfeits.htm and this coin passed muster. At least from my inspection. It is uncirculated as far as I can tell but who knows if it's ever been cleaned - right. Should I get it graded? I paid $42 at an estate auction just for S&G's and I think they didn't know what to value it at. So I took a gamble and it is beautiful.I also picked up an uncirculated 1880 that is stunning and was thinking of getting it slabbed as well. I know the 1900-o with a high grade is worth some serious coin but just wanted to get feedback from others as to NGC or PCGS and is it worth it. Anyone with experience doing this I would appreciate your feedback. Thanks in advance
Well, I personally would prefer NGC, but the boards are pretty much split, they both are pretty much the same thing...IMO I own coins from both companies and have never had a problem with either.... I just think NGCs slabs are more...stylish? Could you possibly post a picture of the coin??
Actually if genuine either PCGS or NGC would be a good choice. I think on morgans they are about equal.
