1946 NGC MS-63 DDR Walking Half, Conservation Or Not?

It would be cool to see some close up pics of the doubled die.On the topic of conservation it really depends on what you are going to do with the coin. If it is a coin you really appreciate and it is going in your personal collection and you want to see the coin without the spots, go right ahead. But if you are planning on reselling it I don't recommend conserving it only because you are going to lose money on the coin because you would be paying the fees to conserve it and submit it to ANACS.

@ Coinfrog, I paid $51 plus shipping, bought it as a 1946 ms63 but it is a double die reverse. I collect 1946 DDR's (my avatar) I have quite a few circulated and 2 MS-64's slabbed.

I do not think it will come back any better than MS63, but I figured while it was being re-holdered for the error, another $12 dollars for conservation might give it a more appealing look.

I think the coin will bring $300-350 range. I did sell a MS64 at $575 and a AU-58 for $225, both ANACS slabbed. I would love to keep them all but I move some here and there.

here is one of the MS64s in my collection.




Here is the topic coin (full pic) (no DDR attribution)

ANACS will only conserve the coin if they think they can help it... I don't think there is any conservation that could be done to reverse the spotting.

Thanks Coop,

It will go out in the next batch for attribution. I am still waiting on my last lot to come back from ANACS.
