First one and only one I was able to process os far. This one I thought was undergraded. I was thinking MS 62, but after looking at it again, I see AU 58.

I'm only going to post the ones that I won't post on my IHC and Flying Eagle thread. So first up is an 1883 V nickel No Cents, I slabbed this one for a fellow collector. This is her first high grade classic coin. She was very happy and I was also. As it looks really nice. I would grade this one MS, but with the cleaning I can see AU 58, but never the less, its a nice coin.

Looking at the quarters again, I can't see this one as MS 66 if the other was AU 58. Maybe MS60 and MS62/63, but not AU58 and MS66.

After showing the grades to my wife, she asked me if I had annoyed the grader. I didn't think I did .

The 1857 FE was listed as F12, looking at it, there was no way the coin was actually F12, I did think it was cleaned and Yes I saw the dings, but I didn't think it would get details for a scratch. I have $23 into this coin and I love Flying Eagles, and I think it looks good for a $23 coin.

The rest of the coins ( IHC) are here:

http://goccf.com/t/370239

So I guess the question is would I do it again?

And the answer is YES but with a warning. While I'm comfortable grading Copper Cents and Silver Coins, when it comes to copper/Nickel coins, I am actually not as accurate as I thought. I get the grade in the ball park around 75% of the time based on this submission, but I have a hard time telling if a copper/nickel coin has been cleaned.

As to why I would do another submission, its that many coins at the dealers are not accurately grade, the cost for raw is better for some coins and that the coins look good in an Anacs slab. For the 7070, I won't as those coins are either PCGS or NGC and the slabbing cost is more than what I want to pay. So buying slabbed in that case makes $$$ sense.

I will state after doing a few of these, the cost of slabbing in case of selling on ebay makes sense. You are giving the seller a slabbed coin that proves validity/authenticity and while the grade is subjective, none of the coins I would say the grade was crazy. So for me slabbing the coins I did, made $$$ sense.

IMO, this is spot on.
