Bulk submission (possibly of the entire hoard) with a specified minimum grade. Anything that grade or higher gets graded and anything lower gets slabbed as BU. Cost per slab varies depending on what percentage of the submission is actually graded. The more coins graded, the lower the cost per slab.
The Olathe Dollar Hoard was a hoard of 25 original bags of dollars found in a bank in Kansas in 2009. Most likely acquired from the Treasury disbursal from the early 1960's.
So far I know the hoard contains 81-S,83-O,84,84-O,85,85-O,86,and 1887 dollars

Interesting topic bump.  Can you try using the Free Image Optimizer on your original photos and upload again?

I have pics from my scanner, will try to post again later. What I like about Olathe Hoard Morgans is the history that in fact they were NEVER circulated. Much like the GSA CC Morgans. How many coins are graded Uncirculated that may have changed hands many times ? These Treasury bags sat in the vault for a century or more , then were slabbed & "graded" . Say what you will about TPG's , but these from NGC & the El Cazador NGC coins are among my best coins.

I do like the group shot.  Keep trying. I know you said you use Lunapics, but you should give our Free Image Optimizer a shot.

still a bit blurry , these pics from my scanner. Apparently, a coin laid flat on the glass is in clear focus, while in a slab holder, it is set back a bit & out of focus.

Hard to tell, but my conclusion is the Brilliant Uncirculated coins are no different than the MS63 NGC grades. Thoughts ?
