Yeah, right! Belongs to a friend.

In other words you dropped a bundle for yet another one and just don't want the wife to know.

Wrong Mr. Jerk.

One 1908-S is enough for me. I'm saving my ammo for the 1907 Ultra High Relief PR68 in the FUN sale.

Okay, this is not a series that I feel comfortable
grading, but I see one mark on the right thigh,
some chatter on the left calf, some well hidden
marks in the eagle's wing, and a little discoloration
on the center obverse, which shouldn't effect the
grade. The strike looks pretty strong, but again
it's not a series in my comfort zone.

I don't see why it wouldn't get a MS65.

If Jay left the cert number on the pic,we could all look it up and that would take the fun out of it

I may be way off, but I think it is a 65. It looks like it has some chatter in the fields.

No way that coin is 58. I think it's better than 60-61-62 as well. I'd say 63, 64 or 65, with a shot at 66.

This is a MS64!

I don't have it in hand to give details why it is. I can sense some rub on the high spits, which is usually the culprit in keeping coins this nice from being GEMS. The 1908-S comes VERY noce...in fact I'd say it's the best struck coin until 1915. Many of these look a grade higher than they are assigned...they seem to be held to a higher standard because of the strike.

So that's that!

MS67. I wish it was mine.

I said it was a MS64. Still think it's a MS67?



Here's mine...a TOP-end MS66...

Yours is better

Yours is nicer than at least 1 67 that I have seen !

I'll give it a 66. Might be a 65, but I'm going to say 66.

Where are those high spits that you speak of?
