These came in a couple months ago via my scrapper buddy. At the time I paid slightly over melt because of how clean they looked to my naked eye. Well here is what I got back, needless to say I am happy overall but wish I didn't waste the money on the details coin. Should I crack it out and sell it as a UNC which it is or is there more value in the Details Slab? Thanks for the opinions    |

Beautiful coins, I would keep the details coin in the slab just for authentication if you decide to sell it.

At first, I did not see the "cleaning" evidence, but then the images from PCGS made it apparent;  http://www.pcgs.com/Cert/26584088/ http://www.pcgs.com/Cert/26584089/Nice coins nevertheless!  I would not have opted for the "Gold Shield" (PCGS Secure Plus), at an additional expense (+$15 each), although you get nice, clear images (see above). Paying "close" to spot you did very well with the MS63, you broke even on the cleaned quarter eagle. I would not crack the details grade and try to sell it as an UNC, you would get it returned pretty quick as being deceptive. IMO. Edited by oih82w8

Congrats on the 63. Those are tough to make.
The Details slab adds no value to me but some do like the assurance of authenticity. I'd leave it in the slab for now if it were mine.

Really? You really can say that there are enough hairlines on the 1927 to make it ungradable, but the 1928 is a pristine MS63? It's arbitrary garbage like this that has the TPG's just about ruining this hobby for me. Maybe I'll just take up whittling, or amateur theatricals instead. |

the hairlines on the Reverse looks like it is definitely enough to make it a details grade to me. I would also just leave it in the slab and if you sell I would let the new owner decide if they want to crack it out or not. You can still list it as UNC details and with the slab you have the benefit of the buyer knowing it is authentic

" I would not crack the details grade and try to sell it as an UNC, you would get it returned pretty quick as being deceptive. IMO." oih82w8, I understand what you are saying. I just list my coins as is grade for yourself, UNC is a bulk term to me, like AU and BU. Plus I always take returns when it comes to non bullion sales on ebay so that won't be a problem. I'll probably keep this one for my 7070 that I'm gonna start soon. And thanks for the link to the photos I did not know that existed. The Secure Plus was an accident, just me being a dumbing and not reading the directions. lol |

leave it in the slab!! For those that want a genuine indian, they will buy it. You crack it out and then you get a slew of issues with people then questioning you if these are real, etc

I've never sent any coins in yet but I want to what do they charge and why do they have a price on those

daniels, once you become a member, it's about $30 a pop, plus shipping (registered mail) & insurance both ways, unless there is a coin show where they accept on-site submittals. Or get a hold of a dealer who will submit your coins on your behalf.

Yeah, leave it in the slab...they are faked so much. Its still a nice coin and you may get something out of it...a bit more than you think. I think its enough to put it in a details slab, though some TPGs might give it a 60 or 61 as a 'net' grade or something. The 63 is real nice on the grading.
