Will PCGS/NGC grade a chop mark Trade Dollar

loanshark

Got a really nice 1875-S at the Bellaire coin show that I would like to send in. Will they certify it?

I think PCGS will grade Chaopmaked Trade $$

CoinAddict

Yes, PCGS will grade it. I am not sure if NGC grades them or not.

NGC doesn't, but NCS will

I sent one in, an 1878-S, it came back PCGS AU-58, someday I would like to know if the "chopmark" is a rare one----BigE

Hey loanshark, I was there(Bellaire Coin Show) and would like to have met you. It's the first time I tried to sell some coins and I actually made some money on what I sold. Seemed to be a pretty good turn out for a small show.

PCGS assigns a numerical grade ignoring the chopmark and denotes 'chopmark' on the label. NCS assigns a details grade. ANACS assigns a details grade and a net grade.

Any way to tell what the chop marks say?

If there is a bunch of them on there they say "beat up"---------------------------BigE

Thanks I hate to ask how you do that because I know I'll find or figure it out on my own.

TDN, that coin looks like it was on a piece of felt when they smacked it, or was it camel skin. The surfaces appear to be almost perfect, very nice-------------BigE

Yes, PCGS grades them. I am pretty sure NGC will not. Here is a PCGS MS62
