It's got a shot at 64.

The hits of the cheek are probably what kept it from 64 in the first place. But if it were mine, I'd want it in a PCGS holder anyway so I'd crack it out and send it in.

Hard to tell from those photos/scans but I don't see much that would keep it out of a 64 grade. Resubmitting raw would be a good move - shoe in for 63 and may get 64 easily

hey FadetoBlack (are you a Metallica fan by the way?) I sent it in using my 6 free voucher, so they say 15-21 days, I had 4 raw morgans, and 2 nice halves, was a great time to use the voucher

15-21 days is generous. I am betting you don't hear back about grades until right near Christmas or the week before. It's business days, so weekends don't count, then any holidays, and then they're usually behind by a day or two... Did you crack it out and send it raw, or send it slabbed for a cross?

Not a huge Metallica fan, but they're in my regular mix, and like the song, lol.

Also my 1880 S morgan I cracked out of the NGC, was graded as MS 66, PCGS gave it an MS 66+ well worth sending them in! and the really great one, I bought a Raw 1941D Half, it was graded MS 64 by the guy who sold it, it came back as MS 66!

great submittal overall!

The grades just got posted to my account, I expect them to ship today or tomorrow

Nice work on the crackouts and the raw pick. Buying raw coins is very profitable if you can find good sources.

are you suggesting sending it to CAC instead of cracking out for regrade? I know very little about CAC but do see the coins typically get higher prices on ebay etc
