These are all out on their way to NGC currently. Would love to hear some opinions on grade. Going to try this one in the designation review. Came back MS66RD first time through, attempting to get PL..... Video of PL Wheat Cent Click the over button to get the video of the reverse.
I love the 1891 seated dime. Very attractive. The SBA is also very nice. Good luck with your submission.
I wanted to say that you might be overlooking a possible variety, Check your coin against this one. The die markers seem to match. Also in the last die stage (D) it has the same polish lines. The die chip in the left wheat stalk triggered my search. http://varietyvista.com/01a LC Doubled Dies Vol 1/1955SDDO001.htm
1. 1866 Indian Cent AU-58 2. 1891 Dime (Technical AU) But I think it would go MS-63 3. 1980 Dollar I think they might go UNC Details questionable color, just because of the splotchiness of the toning. They are pretty hard on color as of late, just like PCGS. 4. 1968-D Half Dollar MS-64★ The color looks good to me, hopefully they feel the same way. 5. 1918-D Half Dollar This one is tough to tell from the images, but I think I see an AU-53. 6. 1955-S Cent I can't tell how reflective those fields are from the images, so could be a toss up on the PL designation. (Just looked at the video, I think it has a shot at PL)
1. AU-58 2. AU-58 3. MS-60 Details, Artificial Toning (might straight grade at MS-65) 4. MS-65 5. AU-53 6. MS-66RD
1. UNC Details, cleaned. The color and lack of luster does not look right. 2. AU-53 3. UNC Details, QC 4. MS-66 * 5. MS-62 Appears to have full (but subdued) luster. I don’t see anything that is obvious wear. 6. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I am going to pull an Ed Wood and change my guess to AU-55. Upon a second look, the luster is obviously broken on the high points.
1. Looks cleaned so AU - details 2. Au55 - I like it the best of the whole bunch 3. No telling and will swag a 65. 4. Another swag at 64/65 5. Au55 and another nice one. 6. Still a very nice 66. 3 and 4 no telling what they might do with those 2.
Results AU58 AU58 Artificial Toning UNC DETAILS MS64 MS61 MS66- @C-B-D wad kind enough to offer to take this coin to the Philly ANA and ask NGC why it’s not PL.
