Metalman Pillar of the Community United States 7123 Posts	Posted 03/03/2005 12:54 pm Hi Speedy The coin I believe will grade MS-64 RB but the pics might be decieving on the color, it could be red,, The only reason I didnt go a bit higher on grade is I think I see a few rim dings and some rub on both obverse and reverse.

Susanlynn9 Forum Mom United States 5877 Posts	Posted 03/03/2005 1:49 pm MS63/64 RD. I think it could go either way, depending upon the mood of the grader. I definitely think it'll make the 63 with no problem. Report this Post to the Staff

Speedy Valued Member United States 307 Posts	Posted 03/03/2005 3:54 pm Metalman and Susan Wow...I didn't think about it going that high...I bought it at MS60 price and thought it was a little better! I'll let ya'll know when I get it back from ANACS!! Speedy Report this Post to the Staff
Mike Rest in Peace United States 2884 Posts	Posted 03/14/2005 06:02 am It looks like there might be a small gouge on the cheek. That is of course a prime focal area. It still looks cleaner than a straight MS so I'll say MS62RB. It also looks like the rims took a few small hits and as is typical the reverse in nicer than the obverse.With the right grader it might squeese a 63!!!Mike.....note...it may go straight Red its hard to say from the photo.

Speedy Valued Member United States 307 Posts	Posted 03/14/2005 5:23 pm Mike Thanks for giebing me your guess...I guess I'll just have to wait till they come back to see!! HOPE IT'S A HIGH GRADE!!!! Speedy Report this Post to the Staff
catman Rest in Peace United States 954 Posts	Posted 04/16/2005 02:42 am Speedy, I think it will go a MS-64 if it turns out not to have been cleaned. It may be the photo but the coins has a dipped looked. Nice piece. catman Report this Post to the Staff
Susanlynn9 Forum Mom United States 5877 Posts	Posted 04/16/2005 07:37 am I have found that it is difficult to capture luster and detail accurately in an image. I think the "dipped look" comes from a flatness in the luster that is probably not on the actual coin, but I guess we'll find out soon enough when Speedy gets it back from ANACS.

Mike Rest in Peace United States 2884 Posts	Posted 05/18/2005 12:30 am Speedy, What did this end up being? It is a beautiful coin. Mike Report this Post to the Staff
SFDukie Pillar of the Community United States 980 Posts	Posted 05/18/2005 11:48 am I'm feeling better about my nascient grading skills seeing that the pros here think this is better than MS 61- that is my naive thought as well. what is anacs turnaround time running these days? Speedy, why did you submit it to anacs rather than another TPG? Report this Post to the Staff
Speedy Valued Member United States 307 Posts	Posted 05/18/2005 3:32 pm Sorry guys--they agree with Catman...UNC Details NET AU50--CLEANED....It has helped me though...I didn't know how to tell if a coin had been dipped...I've been reading up and this has also helped. All in all...I might have lost a few dollars but what I learned was worth it!!!! Speedy Report this Post to the Staff
Speedy Valued Member United States 307 Posts	Posted 05/18/2005 4:05 pm Don--sorry I didn't see your questions when I was posting... ANACS is cheaper and I don't see anything worng with them...I have never seen a coin that I thought was over graded in a ANACS holder (I'm sure there are some out there) they will also grade coins that have problems...with a net grade. ANACS took about 4 months...right under that and I also called about 5-6 times asking about the time...the girls and guys that take the phone calls are nice about everything and try to help in any way they can...I will use them again for sure... I like NGC and PCGS...dont' get me wrong...but when you pay $10 for a coin that is only worth $25...and then you send it to NCG or PCGS and pay $20+ for grading you cut out any proffit you mgith ahve gotten...ANACS only costs about $10-$12 if you do the slow grading...if you can pay for it I would go the faster grading and get your coins back sooner!!!
