Peacesilver Valued Member United States 98 Posts	Posted 12/30/2013 6:37 pm Wondering which TPG would be good to send GSA Hard case Morgan and soft case Peace to? Also would it be good to pay extra for VAM attribute services for them? Thanks Report this Post to the Staff

zxcccxz Pillar of the Community Canada 5417 Posts	Posted 12/30/2013 7:08 pm I would say NGC or PCGS, your choice. I prefer NGC for GSA Hard Cases. VAM attribution costs extra and determining what VAM the coin is, is key before spending that extra cash. Remember most VAM's are not valuable. You can attribute the coin yourself at http://www.vamworld.com/Morgan+VAMs+By+Date or post on the forum with high quality pictures for some help. Report this Post to the Staff
dave700x Rest in Peace United States 10625 Posts	Posted 12/30/2013 7:21 pm There are not many added value VAMs for the common CC Morgans. You might want to post photos for some second opinions by members here on CCF. Report this Post to the Staff
Peacesilver Valued Member United States 98 Posts	Posted 01/04/2014 03:48 am Dave700X, I would like to post the images for them. But pictures come out blurry regardless whether I use USB microscope, iphone camera, or digial SLR. Can't seem to get nice pictures that everyone is getting. So until that is resolved, I'm out of luck. Report this Post to the Staff

I like natural light, but members show some great camera & lighting setups in that section of the forum Report this Post to the Staff
westcoin Pillar of the Community United States 9792 Posts	Posted 01/04/2014 06:11 am There are a few VAMs in the GSA that would bring a good premium, 1878-CC VAM11, 24A, 1879-CC VAM3, 1879/8-CC VAM 5, 6, the 1891-CC probably would not be much of a premium. I personally like the way NGC and ANACS do their GSA case grades with a sticker, the PCGS encloses the coin into yet another layer of plastic. Is there an 1890-CC VAM4 tail bar gouge in a GSA holder? Now that would be something to see! "Buy the Book Before You Buy the Coin" - Aaron R. Feldman - "And read it" - Me 2013!

Almost 4000 1890-CC's made it into GSA holders. It's not out of the realm of possibility. http://coins.www.collectors-society...eSetID=13324 Report this Post to the Staff
