chris12018 Pillar of the Community United States 2130 Posts	Posted 02/23/2009 10:02 pm She is PL. I am thinking about grading her. I was told MS63- MS64 I would like MS65 but It' a big jump from 64, A STAR grade would be sweet!. Feel free to help me grade her.

TNG Bedrock of the Community United States 10284 Posts	Posted 02/23/2009 10:09 pm Here is my guess from the picture and what I think it looks like in hand. That obverse rocks! MS65obv MS63.5rev somewhere between DMPL and PL only on obv. PL on rev. I think in the end you'll get a solid MS64 Proof Like out of it. LATE EDIT: Good night it's time to look at my eyelids.

Chump_Change Pillar of the Community United States 618 Posts	Posted 02/25/2009 10:48 pm Sorry Really a novice here. What would and is a Star grade on a Silver Dollar be for? Report this Post to the Staff
gawd0wns Valued Member Canada 464 Posts	Posted 02/25/2009 10:51 pm I think a star grade would indicate the coin has superior eye appeal (looks really really good). Edited by gawd0wns 02/25/2009 10:51 pm Report this Post to the Staff

biokemist6 Bedrock of the Community United States 12437 Posts	Posted 02/26/2009 11:22 pm A star(*) is a superior eye appeal designation used exclusively by NGC. Star coins are worth more points in NGC's registry and tend to sell for more money than a similarly graded coin without the designation. BTW, very nice Morgan Edited by biokemist6 02/26/2009 11:23 pm Report this Post to the Staff

chris12018 Pillar of the Community United States 2130 Posts	Posted 02/27/2009 06:59 am What is the opinion on this recieving a Star grade. My cost was @ $60. So is it worth sending her to NGC. Thanks for the compliments. She is starting to blush Report this Post to the Staff

Indian1 Pillar of the Community United States 3640 Posts	Posted 02/27/2009 4:21 pm Hi Nice coin by the way. What's with this star stuff. Have all the grading co's changed their criteria again ? Eye appeal is already one of the factors used in determining the overall grade of any coin. At least it used to be. I keep seeing and hearing all kinds of weird things about the way coins are graded lately. I.E.: Obv. is a 63, rev. is a 64 so ? If any coin has say, an MS 69 obv. and it happens to have a MS 63 rev. then the coin is graded MS63 period. Are they now splitting grades based on ea. side of the coin ? I may have to post this as well as more at one of the grading forums. Report this Post to the Staff
