If you read my other posts you know that I recently bought a group of coins from an estate. I bought all of these coins based on my opinion of grade & whether or not they had been cleaned. There are a couple of these that I think I might not have paid fair market value for. I'm not going to disclose what I paid, but if the forum opinion of grade/condition varies greatly from my own I'm going to contact the seller & make things right. I'm hoping I'll get some good opinions of grade, what problems you see & if the coin is impaired(cleaned, damaged, etc) what percentage of non-problem value would you have paid. My pics are not the best....if there's something I think the pics don't show I'll point it out. Pics are reasonably accurate although there is a rim ding to the left of the date that is worse in hand than in the pic.   |

G6. Not enough hair left, and worn through the denticles on the reverse. Likely won't slab due to the obverse rim ding. $100-125 maybe? $150 in a righteous G6 slab.

I thought this one might go VG. Looking at it again I don't think it quite hits VG & the rim ding is probably enough to keep it from getting slabbed.

Absent a harsh cleaning, graffiti, or serious environmental damage CC's will almost always get slabbed TPG's love them |

I don't have it in hand yet but ANACS gave this one a VG-8.

Nice! I had a feeling a TPG would put this one in a VG slab the new ANACS is pretty strict, too, so might have made VG-10 at NGC |

I think VG8 is a good call.

Definately not an 8. It's a solid G6. The weakness of the rim on reverse where it blends into the field eliminates it from and 8. PCGS won't slab a Morgan as an 8 without full rims on both sides. The rim ding by itself probably wouldn't disqualify it as its not that bad for a well worn coin. I think it clearly has been cleaned in the past. I think it carries a net G4 value about $150-$160 IMO.

I generally do not read others responses before submitting my opinion on these 'guess the grade' threads...so I did not see this was already graded by ANACS. I'm suprised (and a little disappointed) that they would put this in a VG8 slab. It's clearly missing that grade due to the weak reverse. That will certainly help to market it however.
