Will she grade, a story from start to finish.

Bought this lot of Peace dollars sight unseen the other day. Yes, the rainbow bug still haunts me. I bought it for the far top left coin of course. Now the question is.... will it slab? I'll take you from these pictures, to pictures in hand (in a day or so) and finally through the grading process to see what happens.

I'm probably wrong, and it is probably just the picture, but I associate that blue with heat.

Peaceman

Heat.. I dont think so. I've seen coins that were in a fire before and they dont look pretty... It'll be fun to see it and take pictures in hand. I wonder how original it looks...

It will slab in a Genuine holder.

IMHO, you'll be wasting your money if you send that one in for grading.

DIMEMAN

I think it will slab. It won't be the blue toning that stops it. I can't see it good enough for other possible problems. Looks real nice to me. That blue is not from heat. If it was it would be all over not just cresent. It would be worth a economy fee try to me.

Peaceman

I saw one of these sell for $700.... I pd $16 each. I think $30 or so to try it wont break the bank. Now if I get her in hand and it's obvious AT, I wont waste my $. Just was curious why one stood out in this lot...

That's an extremely bold statement and one which I would take with a grain of salt.

Looks natural to me but since they changed their standards probably wont grade

It will return in a Genuine holder. It would be a nice learning tool for the classroom...

It may very well be natural, but I think it will get a genuine holder if you send it in to PCGS.
