They Crossed! Pics Added (I hope!)

Just got my crossover grades from NGC...

Submission #2069663

1891 P Morgan $1 was ICG MS 64 is now NGC MS 64
1883 P Seated 10 cents was ICG MS 63 is now NGC MS 63

I wasn't expecting gradeflation, but I knew they were correctly graded. I crossed them because unfortunately they just didn't command the same money in an ICG holder. I think this is a crying shame because IMO most of their stuff (except modern) is correctly graded. Anyway they crossed, wahoo!

BTW, the 1891 was originally a PCGS MS 63 old clacker and the 1883 dime was formerly a PCI Gold Label MS 63. I wish everyone a good week as mine has started off in the right direction!

ADDED:
I just realized I have a pic of the 1891 from when it was still in the ICG holder. The junk around the E on the reverse was on the holder not the coin.

    Larry, I have to wait for them to get back from NGC. I received a shipping notice and called them and got my grades...

    They were cheap and here at our local Ft. Lauderdale show. Besides I like the ICG guys and want to support them if I can. As a dealer with a show special I paid $9.60 each and got 5 day service. I sent in 17 or 18 coins. They all did well on Ebay except these two. I think it's because collectors of both these series are just more picky and afraid to take a chance on an ICG slab for several hundred dollars.
