Hello everyone! Hope all is well with you. I just picked this up for kind of cheap and it is graded fairly high by a "basement slabber" as I've read on here. I am thinking about cracking it open and giving it a go at NGC, even if it grades 2-3 grades lower than current slab I would benefit. Let me know what grade y'all would give it. Like the title says I will post pics later in current slab and then after resubmission. So let's hear those guesses!   |

Can't get a good feel of surfaces with these pics, but something's off here. Can you take some photos out of holder?
Edit: Of course only break out if you don't plan on returning, don't want to kill any shot at returning this if need be!

I should have the coin by the end of the week, I'm using sellers pics at the moment. All guaranteed and returnable if need be. I should be able to get better pics once in hand...

Based on photos doesn't look legit to me. ANd there is something around "Liberty" & "Pluribus" that might just be in the plastic.

Looks fake/plated. A basement slab is worthless.

Looks whizzed and polished to me.

I mean it looks like MS67 to me, so it seems to good to be true. Also, if it were MS67 why would it be in an unrecognised slab. You know what they say when things look too good to be true...
Anyway it is probably real, I don't see anything immediately off except it seems too new. Waiting for photos in hand that aren't grainy :D

I don't think I would buy a coin, if those were the only pics to go by (unless the price was near melt value).

Impossible to grade from those photos but if I had to hazard a guess I would say AU details, polished.

I'd say same as your other 81-S that got bagged.... Polished, I have never seen rust/ orange peel in the OBV top like that. maybe even phake. This is ONLY my opinion ----- Please stop buying these!! It's only going to eat up all your hard earned $$. Just pay up for a nice top 3 TPG slabbed coin. The money you spend + submission fees make sure you will never realize any profit on these, if that's what you are trying to do. |
