For those of you who wonder about the old ANACS grading compared to current PCGS grading, here's a data point. 1927 Peace dollar graded by ANACS in it's early days - 10/26/1981  and just crossed to PCGS - 2/14/2018 (don't even have the coin back yet, but the cert is on PCGS website)  I'll save everyone the trouble of looking up the PCGS grade. They graded it as ........ MS63  Edited by BadDog 02/14/2018 1:33 pm

I kinda figured that's what happened, BD. Just being a commodian.  Now that I see that Peace dollar, it's a beaut! I don't normally go for them, but I would most definitely pursue one like that.

Not really surprising. ANACS in the photo cert days and up to the sale to Amos was doing technical grading per ANA standards. Hard to say with today's gradflation what compares...

Before ANACS was sold, they had excellent grading standards. Unfortunately, that can't be said today. Very nice Peace dollar!
