Did you have PCGS conserve it?


No, Slider and a few others convinced me it was risky with little added benefit. So just my conservation work - happy it straight-graded.

Cost was $37 with coupon - just grading.

But I'll guess if PCGS did the conservation work they would base the 3% conservation fee on the "PCGS Price GuideSM Value" ($875) that they list on the cert.

Well, you did a great job on the restoration. It's hard to believe that was a metal detecting find. Well done on both counts, and congrats on a nice grade from PCGS! =)

Sounds like a good deal and it is a nice-looking coin. What about shipping to and from and insurance?

Brandmeister - here is original thread on this coin.

Ultimately, I'm just thrilled to know that the right dirt find can straight grade - at least for silvers.

I have this copper http://goccf.com/t/452896 in the queue currently. If this details then I doubt any copper dirt find would ever straight grade.

DOCC please give it a minimum of 24hr, 48 is better before posting grade so others have time to respond.

Doesn't matter much, you already posted the result in the other thread anyway. Grade seems fair. Very cool for a ground find! TrueView seems pretty "true" for a change.

37.00 includes return shipping with $500 insurance. Outbound to PCGS sent registered mail which was $38 - that automatically includes $1500 insurance. Total out of pocket is $75 with coupon, $115 ignoring coupon. I did Regular service level.
