Nice buy, but not worth grading. Enjoy.

I've got it at AU-58 (~$50).
Nowhere near what I consider the value for submitting for grading ($150-200).

AU-58, save the money on getting it slabbed.

average strike for this year. AU58. I think the luster is a little lacking. common date. $30-35 retail. don't send it in. maybe there's more luster than the photos are showing but it still isn't going to be MS

Great pickup! It might be 1885-O VAM 12. I'm at AU-58, too. The surfaces look better than a lot of AU Morgans. I agree, it isn't worth paying for a slab, but it should sell quickly for $25-ish above what you paid. That's a great cherrypick any day. |

Well, I got it, and it had alot of debris on it, so I gave her ye ole acetone bath. Best pictures I could get, I dunno if these shots make any difference. Change anyone's thoughts? In the top left corner there is the slightest of rim damage that the sellers pictures masked rather well :) Think I might toss this one back to ebay with the seller's pictures lol   Edited by farrider11

Why re sell it? Definitely a keeper, to my way of thinking !  |

I know how this is going to sound, snobbish, but I only hold slabbed stuff in my collection.
As another member said, I'm old, and when I die, I want to make it easy to pass on a collection with a known quality.
Hell half the people in my family do not appreciate the fun of collecting as a hobby, its just a dollar figure.
But thanks guys, I really do appreciate your time and experience to help make informed decisions.
My hats off to the Frog! He has been especially helpful every time I post a coin.
And all the rest, thank you :)
