estedman Valued Member United States 180 Posts	Posted 07/10/2013 6:23 pm I have an opportunity to buy a 1843-O Liberty $2.50 graded AU50. Any thoughts on value. I checked ebay and the prices are kind of all over the place. Thanks Report this Post to the Staff

estedman Valued Member United States 180 Posts	Posted 07/10/2013 6:40 pm @BH1964 I am not sure if it is a big or small date and not sure of the grader. I saw it and made a note on the year and grade. I will check it out tomorrow. Report this Post to the Staff

IHPO8S Valued Member United States 374 Posts	Posted 07/11/2013 10:28 pm I bought gold coins back in 2000 that were in NTC holders. They were all legit. I only payed gold value at the time. So grading didn't matter to me. I sold one coin for almost what I bought all 4 for. Report this Post to the Staff

They are exemplary of what's called a "third-world slabber." True, in general. NTC is both optimistic on grades and may overlook problems like cleaning so you have to assume an NTC-slabbed coin is likely overgraded and afflicted with some kind of defect. Nevertheless, it is possible to find decent coins in NTC holders selling at attractive prices. Buyer definitely beware, but a careful collector can score nice pieces. My only NTC coin is an 1835 Half Dime graded XF-45, cleaned. I'd grade it XF details, with a light cleaning and very attractive toning that gives it a lot of appeal. I'm very comfortable with the $35 I paid. Report this Post to the Staff
