Ralph Pillar of the Community United States 1582 Posts	Posted 06/16/2011 9:31 pm Hey guys! Haven't been around all that much lately, so I thought I'd post this one just to get back among y'all. It came to me graded and entombed in a slab from IGC. I'll put up a scan of the slab in a few days - in the meantime, post your opinions as to what you think the grade of this coin is. Enjoy.

fenton Pillar of the Community United States 4989 Posts	Posted 06/18/2011 11:14 pm I own a VF-30 one that is PCGS graded. This looks exactly like it so I'll say VF-30 nice coin! Report this Post to the Staff
Ralph Pillar of the Community United States 1582 Posts	Posted 06/20/2011 11:19 pm Guys, this is a scan of the slab - a mite fuzzy, but still showing well enough to see the assigned grade. Report this Post to the Staff
junior e Pillar of the Community United States 931 Posts	Posted 06/21/2011 08:04 am VF-30 compares well with an 1885cc that I have that is NGC slabbed. Report this Post to the Staff
Ralph Pillar of the Community United States 1582 Posts	Posted 06/21/2011 08:38 am Guys, after I freed it from it's little plastic prison, and comparing it with the pictures and description in Making The Grade Vol II, I believed it was closer to VF-30 than VF-35, and that was the main reason for posting it - see if others thought the same as me. Apparently you do because the majority of you who responded agree with VF-30. Thank you for your responses. Report this Post to the Staff
Jaobler Pillar of the Community United States 6399 Posts	Posted 06/21/2011 10:48 am Hi Ralph, Welcome back. I also think the coin is a tad overgraded at VF-35; I agree with a VF-30 consensus. Grading services tend to give CC Morgans a positive grade bump in general and that seems to be the case here. Nothing drastic, just a notch higher than a common date would likely be awarded.
