shadowtrooper78 Pillar of the Community United States 1370 Posts	Posted 07/29/2012 4:00 pm I had this one slabbed by ICG, was my first slabbing experience. It was also cheap....$9 per coin. After getting this one back I'm curious if it would crossover to either NGC or PCGS. ICG gave this one a MS 65 which is the grade level in which the value of this coin jumps. What do you think could it crossover? Report this Post to the Staff

BH1964 Bedrock of the Community United States 10982 Posts	Posted 07/29/2012 4:32 pm It could cross at 65 but probably wouldn't. The reverse issues and huge price jump at 65 would likely land it in a 64 holder at PCGS or NGC. Still a very nice example of this better date Morgan. ANA #R3154474 Report this Post to the Staff
Captain Morgan Pillar of the Community United States 620 Posts	Posted 07/29/2012 5:11 pm Very nice coin, if it was mine I would be happy with grade you got and leave it at that. Its all about the coin to me, not the name on the holder. Report this Post to the Staff
IndianGoldEagle Bedrock of the Community United States 36826 Posts	Posted 07/29/2012 7:42 pm I agree with BH1964, it would probably cross over to a MS-64 with the other two graders. Beautiful obverse but that reverse will hold the grade back. Like Captain Morgan said, best to leave it in the ICG holder. Report this Post to the Staff
dave700x Rest in Peace United States 10625 Posts	Posted 07/29/2012 8:09 pm I agree. Don't bother sinking any more money into it. It's a great looking Morgan and a different name on the slab will not change the coin. Report this Post to the Staff
1893S Pillar of the Community United States 1554 Posts	Posted 07/29/2012 10:14 pm I agree with the grade given to this coin. MS65...Beautiful luster, sharp strike, minimal bag marks. Nice coin! Report this Post to the Staff
D0ubl3Eagle Pillar of the Community United States 5854 Posts	Posted 07/29/2012 10:18 pm I also agree with MS-65. I don't know if it would crossover. Beautiful coin! Report this Post to the Staff
shadowtrooper78 Pillar of the Community United States 1370 Posts	Posted 07/30/2012 09:46 am Thanks for the opinions. I guess the investing part of me kicked in (maximize profit and all that). However I can't really maximize a profit on this one as it will be sitting in my safe and part of my morgan set. Who know's.....in 20 years ICG could be the next PCGS haha. I've seen some overgraded ICG slabs but for the most part their grading seems fair. My dad did get a 93-S morgan graded by them and I can't say I agree with the grading, it's an AG coin that looks like it's seen a cleaning.....came back problem free G-4. Randy Campbell (ICG senior grader) analyzed the coins before grading....he also stated the 93-S should be AG details cleaned. He also said this coin was a shoe in for a 64 but had a strong case for a 65 slab. Report this Post to the Staff
