How about buying the ungraded version and then have it graded? That would and should be from a respectable dealer.. On ebay, too many RAW coins are doctored to look better and could turn out to be an MS63.. |

You could have it cross-graded That could be an option with an NGC one if it comes down to it. I'm not in a big rush, so I'll keep watching for now plus it gives time for my pocketbook to recover  |

Ended up getting this 1981-S PCGS MS64 SBA. I was looking for an MS65 but they don't seem to be anywhere to be found. I even checked the sold ebay listings and there hasn't been one in quite awhile so I settled for this MS64 one. I'm happy with it.  |

Yes, I couldn't find an NGC or PCGS in MS 67. I had to settle for an ICG 66+, which I don't like. If I crack it out, I might get a 66 out of it, but it's staying put.... |
