Do You Think This 61 Liberty Would Be A 62 If Resubmitted?

Have you considered sending it to CAC to see if they sticker it?

It looks pretty baggy, with some deeper hits as well. It sure does have nice luster though. If you really want to try maybe send it to PCGS in the holder and see what they say. It would be a great score if it did! I just would not crack it out.

Or even worse, they decide it's MS-60 or AU-58.

This is a scarce coin in mint state and will be worth quite a bit more if it does score an MS-62. For the potential value increase it might be worth re-submitting more than once. Maybe you should start slow and just send it to NGC for a crossover, with minimum MS-61 grade. They might decide it's worth that MS-62 in which case you are a big winner. If it stays a '61 you can then decide if you want to risk the crack-out and take the chance it could down-grade.

For what it's worth, it does look solid for MS-61 and possible for MS-62. I think the grading services would be well aware of the price jump for the next grade on this coin and might be reluctant to give it that '62.

Good luck!

thanks for the input on the coin. I think I might submit it as a crossover to NGC and see what happens. I actually have a few other coins that I know will grade higher (they are in the older green holders from PCGS and most of them are graded 1 to 2 points lower) It is a really nice MS61 1905 IMO and I think its worth the bit of extra cash to try it with the other bunch :)

I would be content the way it is if it were mine.
