Wondering which TPG would be good to send GSA Hard case Morgan and soft case Peace to? Also would it be good to pay extra for VAM attribute services for them? Thanks

I would say NGC or PCGS, your choice. I prefer NGC for GSA Hard Cases. VAM attribution costs extra and determining what VAM the coin is, is key before spending that extra cash. Remember most VAM's are not valuable. You can attribute the coin yourself at http://www.vamworld.com/Morgan+VAMs+By+Date or post on the forum with high quality pictures for some help.

 There are not many added value VAMs for the common CC Morgans. You might want to post photos for some second opinions by members here on CCF.

Dave700X, I would like to post the images for them. But pictures come out blurry regardless whether I use USB microscope, iphone camera, or digial SLR.  Can't seem to get nice pictures that everyone is getting. So until that is resolved, I'm out of luck.

You can browse the Photography section for tips, or post questions  Just basic questions: are you using a tripod or some other method to mount the camera? the camera being still is important do you have a remote shutter release? pressing the release button can jiggle the camera sometimes are you taking the pictures under natural light or with lamp(s)? I like natural light, but members show some great camera & lighting setups in that section of the forum

There are a few VAMs in the GSA that would bring a good premium, 1878-CC VAM11, 24A, 1879-CC VAM3, 1879/8-CC VAM 5, 6, the 1891-CC probably would not be much of a premium. I personally like the way NGC and ANACS do their GSA case grades with a sticker, the PCGS encloses the coin into yet another layer of plastic. Is there an 1890-CC VAM4 tail bar gouge in a GSA holder? Now that would be something to see!
