Looks RB with a great strike for this often poorly-struck date. Congrats!

Thanks frog. Red is a tough grade for 1925 S. I think it may be worth resubmitting.

I'd shy from this one, color is questionable.

You have been right before grape but I'm not so sure this time. The white case makes it very hard for me to get a good pic. I'm going to try. It looks incredible in hand!   Edited by Willburton

Might make red brown. Looks like a pretty nice coin to me for a tougher date in higher grades.

I'm sending a few coins to PCGS today. Wish me luck! It has the reddish orange hue that is the 1925 S Red. I hope they are kind to me!  |

I cant see this coming back as RD but has good shot at RB based on the lighting. the difference between your initial photo and last one really is not helping as we don't know which is the truer color. initial one looks RB new one looks BN

Wow, that's a beautiful example! The second picture is typical for how the 1921-S's in this grade look. Excellent reverse for the issue. Just a tinge of weakness in the right wheat and the O in ONE. I'll warn you about that color with the TPG's. I've had quite a few from the 20's with that toning get bagged....so, GOOD LUCK! Also, I don't see any indication of cartwheel luster (no spokes) and NNC is a 100% fake grader - it could just be a high grade AU coin because they are scammers. If the first set of pictures is the most representative: 63/64 RB or BN (definitely not red like the slab says) |

BTW - Why didn't you crack that worthless slab? It's garbage IMO.

It just got there today. Worst case I'll be out a little over $100, if it comes back details. I'll say tho none of the pics I posted are the true color of this coin. I just couldn't get it right. The reverse has full luster and the obverse is a bit darker but still near full luster. I think it's going to be either dipped or RB+!
And Bad Thad I thought about cracking the slab but knowing me it wouldn't go well. Also thank you for the input!

This one came in cleaned. I'm still waiting on the 2 1930 Ds to come in. They are supposed to be back at my house by tomorrow and they still haven't posted a grade.
