    I think my question was convincingly answered in that forum members do have MS62 coins that deserve love. It's been great to see all the wonderful examples from members!

    I have a 63 I love and I'm going to have it Hoodooed.
    I doubt it will change the value but I like the concept. Local after the fact value adding. And not physically altering anything.
    Just adding extra superstition.
    That should be an option on coin sales in the South.
    It would give us an edge I think. Only New Orleans.


    I picked it because it was shiny and affordable. And after I have it Hoodooed, it will be one a kind.

    How can I mark it without harming the value?

    Laser etching?

    How many threads are you gonna keep this up in? And besides, your coin is a 63, not a 62 which this thread is all about. Geez…stop it already. I’m tired of hearing about the Hoodoo Voodoo bs

    I paid $30 for this PCGS MS62

    @rokky You busted me. But thanks for the one comment. It's all I wanted. And I will get it charmed. I don't know what else I could do to add value. Everyone else said buy a better example. Coins weren't meant to be enhanced or enchanted.
    I used to work in this warehouse where this rabbi would come and make a room full of food cost 68% more with some magic words.
    So please let me give you a hoodoo coin.

    Usually not my favorite grade, as this thread shows, there are indeed exceptions. To my memory, these are the only 62’s I currently have:

    In the bust half dollar world MS62 is usually an attractive, desirable coin. Perhaps not as flashy as a higher grade. Or maybe there's a touch of cabinet friction. I have a couple dozen MS62 CBH's and I love each of them.

    Lance, I agree that the nicer ones have some cabinet friction. But many are choice AUs. You need to see the coin. It also helps to know the die pairing / Overton variety of the particular coin.
