tmack New Member United States 4 Posts	Posted 02/12/2016 11:49 am I am new to coin community and I am from the Houston Texas Area, I have a 1999 ANACS graded MS70 silver eagle for sale, I have called about 10 local coin dealers and only one of them knew that this was a rare coin. I would like to sell this coin without having to go on one of the auction sites. Does anyone have any suggestions on who I can offer this coin to and get a reasonable price for it? Thank you Tony Report this Post to the Staff

Foxwoods Man Pillar of the Community United States 4901 Posts	Posted 02/12/2016 1:06 pm I would try to get a crossover grade of 70 at NGC but only if they will grade it without removing it from the ANACS holder (minimum 70 grade). An ANACS MS70 sold for a tad over $3800 on ebay yesterday vs. an NGC MS70 which went for $11,750 at Heritage. I would not risk ANYONE removing it from the capsule 'cuz an MS69 goes for under $30 Pop of just 113 (NGC) out of a whopping 87,651 graded Problem is ANACS has graded only 2576 and 325 of those are 70's I would put it in an auction with a minimum bid attached. There are presently five ANACS MS70's up for sale right now on ebay ranging in price from $8350 to $33,333....probably won't sell at those prices Hmmmm...I have a roll of 99's. Maybe I'll give them a peek Report this Post to the Staff

moxking Rest in Peace United States 17900 Posts	Posted 02/12/2016 3:50 pm Although the above advice of hoping your coin would grade 70 at NGC is a good one, NGC does not accept encapsulated ANACS coins in the holder. PCGS is all that NGC will attempt to cross grade. Anything other than PCGS has to be broken out of the capsule. It's a big risk since NGC would likely 69 it unless it really is perfect. You would have better luck selling it in the ANACS holder and hoping someone else wants to take the risk of breaking it out and hoping it crosses at NGC. Report this Post to the Staff
jbuck Moderator United States 188213 Posts	Posted 02/12/2016 3:58 pm If selling the goal I would not even risk shipping it to NGC, let alone worry about the crossover. Leave it intact and sell it as-is. Coin Collector Since 1978 Avatar Old Avatar 7070 Eisenhower Australia Canada World CCF Members on eBay CCF eBay Search Engine Report this Post to the Staff

tmack New Member United States 4 Posts	Posted 02/12/2016 5:09 pm Wow, I will try to sell it as is, no way would I risk having it broken into. As a side note-- I called about 10 coin dealers in the Houston Area and asked them if they buy certified coins, all of them said yes, when I told them about the coin only one dealer new anything about the aprox. value of the coin. (Williams Coins) in Clear Lake said he would look around and try to find a buyer for me the others did not know anything about the coin and wanted to give me bullion price for it. Thanks for your help Tony Report this Post to the Staff
stampvirgin Pillar of the Community United States 1247 Posts	Posted 02/12/2016 5:54 pm this where the whole grade-flation comes in. 99% of coin collectors couldn't tell the difference between a 69 and 70.. Report this Post to the Staff
moxking Rest in Peace United States 17900 Posts	Posted 02/12/2016 6:31 pm The average collectors inability to distinguish between grades has nothing to do with 'gradeflation'. Gradeflation is the perceived loosening of grade standards. The belief that what was a 64 10 years ago became a 65 5 years ago and might be considered a 66 today. Report this Post to the Staff
