Got Economy grades! (77 days)

DennisH

Grades were posted Feb. 11 on one of the two economy submissions I submitted to PCGS in person on November 26; still no word on the other. The five coins below were raw submissions; the other submission consisted of six crossovers:

1895-S Morgan PCGS-25 (bought as a VF30; paid just under VF20 Bid)
1879-O/horizontal O Morgan PCGS-AU50 (expected AU50)
1879-O/horizontal O Morgan PCGS-AU50 (expected AU50)
1899 Micro-O Morgan PCGS-AU53 (expected AU50 and bought very cheap)
1921-D TRU_T Morgan PCGS-XF45 (expected AU50 but bought cheap)

The fact that grades have not been posted on the crossover coins makes me wonder if they are inherently slower to go through the system than raw coins are?

How do they stack these up? Seems an earlier submission should be done.

Do they just put them in a big pile and pick one?

Mine arrived 12/1, and I'm still waiting, although my moderns arrived 12/1 and were back before CHristmas!

I don't get it!

The Tru t is a tough one. I screwed up years ago and passed on one graded ms64 by PCGS... nice additions

I'm not much of a Morgan person. What is Tru t??

DennisH

TRU–T is a filled die variety in which the S of IN GOD WE TRUST is virtually gone due to grease/crud/etc. filling the coin's die. They are extremely easy to spot, but difficult to locate -- especially in Mint State grades. The photo below is a closeup from the one I cherrypicked off eBay in a PCGS-62 holder for $42!

Thanks! I never knew that!
