Tryna Pillar of the Community United States 937 Posts	Posted 08/01/2015 4:01 pm perhaps you should have your son save up money he would normaly use for other things until he has enough to get it certified. If he adds up the opportunity costs (what he would give up)he may end up getting what he wants and a good economics lesson at the same time. maybe I should save my coin money for spelling lessons Edited by Tryna 08/01/2015 4:04 pm Report this Post to the Staff
vermontensium Moderator United States 16679 Posts	Posted 08/01/2015 4:11 pm My rule of thumb $150 FMV for coin submission. This coin would qualify. swcoin.ecrater.com Report this Post to the Staff
dmalivecn New Member United States 26 Posts	Posted 08/01/2015 7:37 pm I stopped by two local coin shops this week. One told me it is EF-AU and the other gave AU grade.. Report this Post to the Staff
randyK Valued Member United States 68 Posts	Posted 08/01/2015 7:56 pm Personally I'd call it AU58 details. Don't think it would get a straight grade. Probably not worth PCGS. I just sold one to a dealer in a similar condition for $140. Report this Post to the Staff

dmalivecn New Member United States 26 Posts	Posted 08/05/2015 12:01 am I just renewed my PCGS membership and have a voucher for 8 coins. I guess I will send it in with the voucher. Report this Post to the Staff

dmalivecn New Member United States 26 Posts	Posted 10/19/2015 9:08 pm It came back as UNC details surface scratch (92) from PCGS. Report this Post to the Staff
GR58 Bedrock of the Community United States 11951 Posts	Posted 10/19/2015 9:14 pm I think that is a fair grade. Are you happy with the grade? Report this Post to the Staff
vermontensium Moderator United States 16679 Posts	Posted 10/19/2015 9:23 pm ANACS is the way I'd go with this one. swcoin.ecrater.com Report this Post to the Staff
dmalivecn New Member United States 26 Posts	Posted 10/23/2015 9:39 pm It is a fair grade. I don't collect US coins so this was bought by my son and this is a good lesson for him. Will ANACS give MS grade? Report this Post to the Staff
Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 10/23/2015 9:46 pm It was not a good bet from the start. Report this Post to the Staff
coinlover168 Pillar of the Community United States 506 Posts	Posted 10/23/2015 9:47 pm For details coins, ANACS assigns a numerical grade, unlike NGC and PCGS who assign a "Details" grade with a general condition description (in your case, "UNC") Report this Post to the Staff
ExoGuy Pillar of the Community United States 4416 Posts	Posted 10/23/2015 9:53 pm I agree with Coinfrog ... not a good submission. It would look better in an album, enhancing a set. Coins like this make sets easier to sell, too. Report this Post to the Staff
