I think it would cross over at 63 to PCGS, which is good if you bought it in a SEGS holder, should increase the market value greatly, the chance of it upgrading to 64 is there but still quite slim. Nonetheless, you should have it put in a PCGS holder.

I would not submit it to PCGS unless I had money to burn. This is a better date and probably an AU coin. I say that because of the subdued luster that appears "rubbed" from the cheek and dim in the obverse field from 8:00 to 10:00. I could be wrong of course but considering this is a $4000-$5000 coin in 63? Well, it's likely an AU.
P.S. In 64 it's $10,000+ so we know it's not undergraded by a one-man grading company.

I don't know anything about the prices that SEGS commands, but would it really lower the selling price to have it in a PCGS AU-58 holder instead of a SEGS MS-63? I think that is a relevant question in this case.

If you are willing to gamble the grading fee I'd think getting it to cross to PCGS 63 would be a big win. You never know how PCGS will jump and it could work in your favor. I think you can specify a minimum crossover grade of MS-63 so you only risk the grading fee plus shipping. Do you feel lucky? Well, do you?  |

Unfortunately PCGS will not cross SEGS coins. I don't see any prohibition against SEGS on the PCGS website. Under "Crossover" guidelines they just say their Crossover service is: "For a coin previously graded (currently encapsulated) by another grading service."They also state you can specify a minimum crossover grade, which cannot be any higher than the grade shown on the current holder. I've sent in SEGS-holdered coins in the past and PCGS crossed them, albeit at a grade one notch lower than what SEGS had graded them. If they now exclude SEGS that reflects a policy change that apparently has not been reported on their website. A quick phone call to PCGS customer service could resolve the question.... |

I'm considering doing a crossover with ANACS first, after reading through the different post, comments, and suggestions. It would only be a small fee, and like it was stated previous, I can state a minimum grade.
If I do decide to proceed this direction, then I will keep everyone posted.

Leave it in the MS-63 SEGS holder, I do not see this coin making it into an MS PCGS or NGC holder.

For a crossover submission, SEGS would be acceptable. The Crossover is not limited to the three companys listed. So, PCGS would accept the SEGS-slabbed coin in question as a crossover submission. Big potential upside if it crossed successfully..... Please let us know what happens if you decide to gamble the submission fee. |

I would take the chance to cross over either to PCGS or NGC, it would move quicker in case you do decide to sell. Otherwise; keep it in the SEGS holder for your collection.

This is definitely worth submitting for a crossover. |

Coming late to this, but great thread, and the coin from a technical standpoint is virtually flawless. Almost too good to be true.
