IndianGoldEagle Bedrock of the Community United States 36841 Posts	Posted 08/10/2012 11:46 am Looks like this was a Gem coin that got dropped and slid on the floor. It's a damaged coin so any TPG will body bag it or just give you a "genuine" label. Not sure how you can give it a numerical grade other than Uncirculated details. Report this Post to the Staff
eddiespin Pillar of the Community United States 1547 Posts	Posted 08/10/2012 1:44 pm Unfortunately those rim hits and that swipe across the face and neck do look like damage. Otherwise, she's a gem, and a high one at that. Let me translate that. Forget that damage, she's a $2000 coin, easy. Report this Post to the Staff

IndianGoldEagle Bedrock of the Community United States 36841 Posts	Posted 08/10/2012 9:42 pm It's a real shame because that was a dynamite coin at one time, sharp strike, super clean and frosty. Looks like some guys ex-wife got made at him and beat the crap out of his best coin, tossed it on the ground a couple times then kicked it across the room. That coin with out the damage would most likely be an MS-66 which retails for $40k. MS-65 drops to $5k. What's the story on this coin, how did you end up with it? Report this Post to the Staff
Captain Morgan Pillar of the Community United States 620 Posts	Posted 08/10/2012 10:01 pm If not for the damage MS-64 easy to my eyes. I dont think the rim damage takes away that much of the appeal of this fine Morgan. Mine is mS-63 graded and yours looks better than mine. Report this Post to the Staff

The damage is what really confused me on this one. Because of the Rim Damage I graded it a 64. Which seems to be the going consensus so far. Report this Post to the Staff
