jacrispies Pillar of the Community United States 3848 Posts	Posted 02/04/2022 2:51 pm I think this looks really good, I'll give it an MS-65, possibly 66. Not sure if it can upgrade with the spots removed. Suffering from bust half fever. Want to learn how to attribute early half dollars by die variety?

I sent in coins asking for conservation for the first time in October to NGC and PCGS. I still don't have them back. None of them were morgans. Report this Post to the Staff

I will always drop the grade by one when assessing by trueview. I dont think conservation will fix the eye appeal but I'm not well versed in the process and what can be accomplished. with the neck abrasions I would put the coin in MS64+ box if it can be conserved otherwise MS63+ for me the cost of grading and conservation would not be worth it. even if its fully restored it would not go higher than MS65 with a retail value of about $250 Report this Post to the Staff

RoLik New Member United States 46 Posts	Posted 02/07/2022 1:13 pm So the coin is graded MS66 and due to it's looks is priced like a nice MS65. As is it's not attractive and I decided to pass but was wondering if conservation would have fixed the issues and possibly upgrade... Report this Post to the Staff
