Old-style ANACS holders are rather conservatively graded, and the newer ANACS is the only TPG I advise folks to send Morgans to. This could be good.  It also helps to explain the price. |

Thanks guys! I'm just hoping it's as nice as it looks, definitely appears to have been graded some years ago by the pictures. The seller had positive reviews under his handle on ebay. I don't know why it didn't go for way more...I was actually prepared to pay $1300 to be perfectly honest. |

I think I found the coin. is it this one? 371412763014My only concern is that the coin was sold 2 weeks prior, and the winning bidder also paid right at the auction end. No feedback was left from the buyer It does not mean anything, maybe the other buyer did not like it in hand. It sold for $915. the first time. The seller has a no hassle return policy and his feedback looks good. Just food for thought if this IS the same coin. |

If RK55's link is the coin, I think 65 is probably the ceiling for it. It looks (from mint mark configuration and position only; can't see the other pickups) to be VAM-15. If that's true, I believe this will be the new Top Pop example of the VAM but it would require someone with access to the SSDC Registry to confirm. Info at VAMworld indicates the current finest is MS62 but I expect that information to be outdated now that the Registry has been running for a while. |

Likely returned by the previous buyer, but who knows why?

I don't worry much about a return on ebay; buyer remorse is too prevalent. If it happens twice on one coin, though.... |

Looks like a nice coin and a possible crossover contender. If you are happy with it you might someday consider investing the fee for crossover to PCGS or NGC. You might have a better chance of getting MS65 if you crack it out and submit raw but would risk having it downgraded.
Looking forward to new pictures!

You really can't tell much from those ebay pictures. When you get it in hand, and you still like it, then don't worry about it. If you don't like it, send it back. |

Jaobler,
Why would it need to be crossed over? Are those services just better companies?

PCGS and NGC graded Morgans tend to sell for the market value of the assigned grade whereas the other grading companies seem to get less respect. This coin is a perfect example. As Westernsky posted, if you don't like it return it.

If ypu can get that into a pcgs or ngc 65 slab you're looking at a coin with a selling price of $1,500-1,800. It's just the way it is... look at this one in pcgs 65 that sold for $1,600. And imho is a 64 at best but hey its in a pcgs 65 slab. Even though I think your coin looks better than this one 191665928624 but not as good as other 65s. If you get it into a 65 pcgs or ngc slab you just added overy $500 in value to your coin. |

The biggest difference between PCGS and ANACS is liquidity. A PCGS coin is going to be far more liquid than an ANACS coin, especially in a tougher grade like that. I think a 65 from PCGS is unlikely, and this coin is probably a 64+ by current standards.
