The Peace dollar looks much better in person as does the Type II IKE. Also, is that toning on the reverse of the Peace; or something worse?

    Two questions:

    What is "RB" and "red?"

    &

    Does everyone think that the Peace Dollar is PCGS Grading worthy?

    &

    as always, thanks...

    I also just noticed a little green spot attached to the 9. Anyone know what that is?

    The Peace Dollar is AU/XF as much as I hate split grades. Net XF-45. It might just be that the picture is out of focus, the the reverse seems to have quite a bit of rub, particularly on the eagle's feathers. I would not spend the money to slab it.

    CaptainRon is joking about the RB and "red" designations. Those are only given out to coppers. It's just that the photos have a very red tint to them.

    We ARE watching you.

    I think the photo is out of focus as are all the pics that I take. I'm lousy at it. A $400.00 camera and I still can't get it right image

    All the feathers and detail are pretty much there; it was more the "toning" that I was worried about. As far as the red, I'm going to have to change the background color of these coins....once I figure out howimage

    I have both of these myself. I'll guess MS62 on the Peace, and MS63 on the Ike. Actually, these are the exact same grades I have on these two coins, if these are correct.

    Usual caveats about photos, but... unfortunately I think your Ike is circulated (rub visible on portrait) and would grade AU58. If it's uncirculated, then it looks MS64.

    The good news is it might be a Type 2 and worth something even in AU58, again I can't really tell from the photo. Compare to here:

    AU58 on the peace and I agree I wouldn't take the time to send it to be slabbed. The Ike looks MS62/63 to meimage

    The IKE looks 10 times better in person. The majority of the junk you're seeing is on the plastic from the cardboard holder.

    I may send the Peace in anyway only because I have ALL my other key dates slabbed. If I don't do it; it will just keep bugging me and hounding me....image Anyone else ever do this to themselves? image

    If that's not rub AND it's a Type 2 that's a pretty good score... is it a Type 2 when you compare it in real life to the attribution photos I linked?

    Tad-

    That is a type 2 IKE. I see the rub on the portrait. I agree, AU58 from the photo. But, to look at it in person, maybe a 63/4.
