I'm not buying right now (saving and selling for an early dollar)....but if I were I'd probably take a chance on this coin. Would you buy this coin for $95.00? Why or why not? auction
It's kind of pricey based upon what has sold this year on Heritage. A PCGS 62 could be had for less than $90 (including buyer's premium). It's a nice-looking coin though.
Maybe a little premium for it. But it's a 61..... Don't expect to open up the package and think you're going to be looking at a 64 like in the photo.... obviously optimal lighting...

Such was my logic when I bought it. It was nice in hand, a 62 on another day, but not the zonker I was taking a chance on. I sent it back. The seller, Bob Niego of Eagle Coin Gallery, was a nice guy -- prompt, friendly, and good to his word. Recommended, should he come up with something you want at a price you like.
The eagle looks pretty flat and some of Liberty's hair does too. I think NGC graded it properly. So the return policy doesn't mean much to me on a fairly graded slab. I wouldn't waste time & $$ returning a properly graded slab. Now maybe if you had a can of strike enhancer you could magically turn it into a MS63, reslab it, resale it and put $5 profit in your pocket after fees.
Change that we can believe in is that change which is 90% silver.
The point here wasn't to score a big rip, just to find an attractive 1927 Peace $1 that I liked, at a fair price. This one wasn't miles off, but it wasn't the one. In any event, my point in posting is just that the seller was a decent & easy guy to deal with, and knowing who they are on ebay is worth something.

Otherwise I think it is an attractive coin, and I agree with the seller that it might be undergraded. (From what I can see in those pics).
My overall impression is positive.
The name is LEE!
If I only had a dollar for every VAM I have...err...nevermind...I do!!
