Back to reality... Grades came back...Hello again!!!

First I'd like to say Hi again to everyone. It's been a while since I posted. Spring time projects have taken up plenty of time and a small break from the boards was just my way of getting away from the computer. Some "buys" on Ebay where had here and there(quick checks now and then) and with the reciept of my coins from PCGS it brought me back here to lurk and post and ask more questions again.

Second a apology goes out to Jeremy. I'm sorry I didn't send out any coins for the "BigIndie" charity auction. It seems that everything was put aside when they shouldn't have been. Last year I donated, this year I will be a buyer.......

Here are my lasted coins that were graded. I left a couple of the BB'd coins out. There was no way they were getting slabbed but I tried for the heck of it.

Rec 4/15
shipped 6/12

1 1953-D 50C MS64FL <<Well, I still can't grade these things......I thought it was a better than a 64
2 1879-S S$1 MS64 <<Should be a 65
3 1926-D S$1 AU58 <<Read below.......A nice toned Peace.....................................................
4 1834 25C VF25 <<Paid $40 for it so not to bad
5 1887 S$1 MS63 <<Reverse toned
6 1880-S S$1 MS64 <<PQ should be a 65
7 1893-CC S$1 G06 <<Low grade but key date cost me $7 big ones
8 1895-S S$1 AG03 <<Same as above



Here's a pic of the toning on the 1926 D peace. I mentioned this coin in a earlier thread. I only sent one in(there are 3 total) and it was slabbed. The grade was secondary to the toning of the coin. I'll be sending in the rest shortly. The pictures aren't the greatest. I'm envious of the great pictures most post. Also the bottom pic is the coin slabbed

    Beautiful Peace Dollar! If that puppy would had graded as nice as it looks, it would be a big dollar coin.

    DANG!!!! I would have paid nicely for that if it was a MS63/64.

    Still a nice coin. It's hard grading Peace $ though.

    By the way -- do you have a price on that puppy?

    You should crack out that Peace dollar and keep re-submitting it until it comes back MS62

    welcome back. I believe I recall when you ripped the 93cc...

    great job getting them all slabbed, especially the low grade circs

    I agree, crack that Peace dollar and send it in again. Big bucks if it gets into an MS slab, IMHO. Maybe send it to NGC and see what they say about it (hint: *)
