PCGS grades received

Bad news first, I was not pleased to receive a bodybag designation on one of the coins. Someone is getting a call tomorrow. The reason for the bodybag was due to doctoring.

The other coins came back from PCGS as follows:
1. 1860 $5 Clark-Gruber AU58
2. 1909-s $10 Indian (Dr. Buss Collection) MS63
3. 1875-s $20 Lib. MS61
4. 1923-s SLQ MS65FH
5. 1880-s $1 Morgan MS67
6. 1885 $1 Morgan MS65 premium toning
7. 1883-cc $1 Morgan MS65PL
8. 1921-D $1 Morgan MS65
9. 1888 3c Nickel PR65

The toner is a real looker and the Clark-Gruber came back higher than expected, but the BB was a real punch in the stomach.

Have a Great Day!
Louis

p.s. I left the sellers name out intentionally. Many of you know who it is, but I will give him a chance to make it right before exposing his name.

It looks like you did pretty good....

There's no BB in your list.....?

The BB I purchased as an 1898-o MS66PL in 1985. Wasn't a cheap coin then as well as today.

Have a Great Day!

Great submisson results....Congratulations!!

You bought that bodybagged 1898-0 in 1985 and now you expect a refund.

Good luck on getting someone to honor a 19 year return policy.

Can you post pictures of that `98-o that got BB. That would be interesting to look at.

Did it come back as "altered surfaces"? And was it raw or in another slab? I've had several that PCGS has bagged with this reason, and they all graded fine at NGC.
