UPDATE: PCGS - submittals - 1915-D Barber quarter comes back as NOT cleaned but has a scratch and they will not grade it, at least it came back as not cleaned. The 1997-P proof eagle comes back as PR69DCAM - finally some good news. I just sent in a two coin 1995 Civil War Commemorative set for PCGS grading. 1787 New Jersey Penny comes back from PCGS as NOT GENUINE - other coins are still in the grading process. I owe you guys the results on my coin finds (metal detector) that I posted about last year. I'm just now getting them out for grading (long story, life happens) and should be getting them back in a few weeks. I'll post the grades and stories when I get them back.

Can't wait to hear and see what happens with the grading. Which grading company did you send them to?

That may be a mistake if these are ground recovery pieces. They will most likely be BB for environmental damage. I went looking for your original post on the subject but the pictures have been removed.

Some people have found silver coins in the ground that weren't damaged, so it's possible.

Wow, it has great detail on it. What do you think PCGS would grade it at?

I hope it goes well for you with PCGS. Do you have any links to the New Jersey piece? I really dig metal detector finds and would love to see that one too.

Nice, nice coin. Let us know how the grade comes out. I think that is the one I lost back in 1915 or was it 1916?

I have no idea what it will grade. I'm headed home this weekend and I'll post some pics of the 1787 when I get there.

The 15-D will BB either for envionmental damage or cleaning It is a nice coin but the picture shows major hairline scratches running from 10:00 to 4:00.

Just took these pics of the Jersey copper. Just to repeat, this coin was not dug; I found it in the corner masonry of a colonial era house that was being demolished in Salem NJ. I thought it was a washer when I first saw it, I picked it up and wiped it off and then rinsed with water. It looks like the Maris 48-g variety. Anyway, here are the pics: Image: IMG_1388_300.jpg90.9 KB Image: IMG_1389.jpg90.94 KB

Still looks like it has some environmental problems that would probably get it bagged at PCGS or NGC, but to a colonial specialist that would be one nice NJ. The colonial specialists don't really give a dang about what the TPGs think, and most of them would rather they not be slabbed anyway.

 with Conder101, he is right on the money. If you decide to sell it here, I would bid on it.
