westcoin Pillar of the Community United States 9792 Posts	Posted 07/15/2022 7:08 pm Well this one was worth waiting for, and I am pleasantly surprised that I caught that grade the same as PCGS called it. Glad there is no mention of the scratches as well, I have a similar nice AU Morgan with a rare VAM the 1901 VAM 3 shifted eagle that has a tiny staple scratch across the face, kills the value on it even though the interesting part is the reverse for the dramatic eagle tail feather shifting. I'm probably losing around $600-900 because of that darn scratch, and it's barely noticeable, and only in the angle of light. My coin is in a SEGS holder and the pin scratch is noted, I have sent it to PCGS as a crossover, which they refused so I just left it in the SEGS slab and put it away in the safe a couple of decades ago.

IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: "It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."
