ebay auction photos weren't that great, but bid and won this nice 1936. It cost $57 Cdn. with shipping, which is the C&C list price for an MS-60. I'm not experienced with shiny silver dollars, so what do you think this one would grade ? Got a bonus on arrival - $14 of uncancelled stamps on the package.

I'm in with MS62. Nice haul on the stamps--hope they can be removed cleanly from the paper.

Depends upon who grades it. US TPG's would probably grade it higher than Canadian TPG's. Canadians are tougher.

ijn1944 - I've been soaking stamps off paper since the 1960's, when stamp collecting was still a big deal. Soaked thousands of uncancelled stamps bought on ebay, to reuse to ship my ebay sales. Once bought 1000 p stamps (85 cents at the time), for $425 including mailing - also saved the additional tax if bought at the post office. 2 hours work to save hundreds of dollars. A photo of uncancelled stamps from only 3 packages received the same week. All the train stamps were carefully overlapped with minimal glue,so no damage. Love getting free stamps.

I'm in line with others here. I think 62 is likely and 63 is possible, depending on how good of a day the grader is having. :)

Solid MS63 if PCGS or NGC grades it.

Really nice luster but marks keep it to MS-61. Nevertheless, a good retail deal, if you are also into stamps.
