Aw man am I jealous. Great coin you got there. I think you deserve a banana dance! Even if it comes back AU-50, you'll still have come out ahead!

A twinge of jealousy = XF
Full blown jealousy = AU


I would have to say upper end AU. How weak is the strike on that coin now that you have it in hand?

Christina,
The strike is fairly weak.If I tip the coin at just a certain angle on the reverse,you can make out very vague lines of the breast feathers.The outside area of the reverse and obverse looks like a strong MS,with a number of tiny bagmarks on the obverse.

Thanks Deb,
Coin in hand,I think the tiny bagmarks that are hard to see in the photo on the obverse are going to keep it out of +MS60 range. I'm thinking and hoping AU50-55 range,but ANACS might suprise me. I have this and another 1894-S going soon,so we will see I guess.I think the 94-S should grade MS thou.

Terry, without looking at the remaining posts after you updated the pics, I'm gonna stick my neck out a little further and stick with the MS grade. But since it's in a PCGS slab and knowing that PCGS will go with the lowest possible grade, it's very likely to have come back AU even if it is, in fact uncirculated.

Surprised me. It looks like it's in a PCGS slab, but I was wondering how you got PCGS to get it back so soon. Again, by the images, at first blush, I'd go with MS even with the bag marks. ANACS is gonna have a tough time with this one, but I'd be very surprised if it came back other than at least mid-to-upper AU.

Yep, when I receive a coin in cardboard,that lasts about 12.2 seconds before it hits a airtite. I hope your right on the grading,I would be very happy with that.

Thanks everyone for giving your input.Of course I will let you all know the verdict when it comes back.

Congratulations TLS! Looks like you picked a nice fat juicy cherry off of ebay there. To go from a $80 ebay scan to ANACS AU-55 is pretty sweet, you deserve some dancing fruit
