So I will do what you all suggest once I got it back from ANACS, I'll crack it out and send it to another TPG and get their thoughts.


Although I've heard the same stories about occasional mistakes from ANACS as well as the other TPG's, ANACS seems to be the best of the bunch when it comes to making things right. Your preference is, of course, most important here - and PCGS would be the best if resale is on your list of possibilities - but if your plan is to hold the coin, I might consider giving ANACS the chance to take care of you. It'll cost a lot less.

Well, here's the resolution. I took the coin to a very trusted dealer and friend today, and he said it's a D. So I'm accepting defeat and going with it. I'm off U.S. gold, and on to Mexican. It'll be good trading material if nothing else. Thanks for your input everyone.
Rest in Peace

This reminds me almost exactly of my 1909-DO ordeal I went through....and I basically came to the same conclusion that you did. Kind of funny actually..lol. I ended up selling mine as a D, but I was never fully convinced.

It's so close, with the increase in value, I'd crack it and take a chance.

I'm sadly pretty convinced with mine. It's a D. But I'm going to make the best of it. I'm thinking of trading it towards an 1889-CC Morgan. At least there's no question with that one.
