I was going through some coins and this was marked regrade.

So what grade would you guess it. Thanks for playing

MS62?

Grip, it says teletrade at the bottom of the photo so I am sure someone will cheat--------BigE

OK, the pic on my monitor says 64. But, grading gold . . from pix ?? And of course, with me being a bit raw at the skill anyway??

I guess what I am saying is, I can be flushed down the grading toi-toi as irrelevant, but I sure like the look of the coin!

64

Pics are a bit small, but if it is 62 then I think a regrade is in order.

58

Yup,sure is.It's also in the properties.LOL Next time i'll try to make it more interesting.
It's a 62 as you probably all know,now I need to find four others for the trip

Look purdy! 63??

RunnersDad

From the picture I would say that it is a candidate for upgrade.

I'm with you...58

It looks like an MS-64 at least, but somehow the photo looks too good (too clean, too free of marks) to be true.

What is it in, an MS-62 holder?

I have a 1907 No Periods eagle that is in an MS-62 that looks like it could be 1 or 2 points higher. But the services seem to have some consistently problems with the grading of those softly struck coins.

Welcome to the boards.And yes,thats what I thought when I pulled the trigger
But like BillJones said, there must be something i'm missing.It's
in an NGC holder,and i'm going to crack and send to PCGS.

It will be fun,little downside if it comes back 58.

Artist

Personally, I would grade it...



That is some strike! Until I scrolled down to the date, I though I was looking at higher-relief 1907.

Too tough to grade from the pics... if it is as mark free in-hand as it appears, and the luster is there, I would not be surprised to see it in a 65 holder, or higher.

id say 63 maybe a 64

Unfortunately, the images provided do not allow for a meaningful grade guess.

Reminds me of a killer 1911 $10 in MS62 I bought at FUN two years ago. The coin was a 62++ without any significant hits, no real hairlines and full field luster. Felt that a 63 would be an easy score. The coin came back 61 on the next 2 tries. I still have it.

The irony will be that as soon as I give up on it.....then next guy will get a 63 on the first try.
That's how Indian gold works.

Mark; Best I can do on size.

MarkInDavis

I really have no experience grading gold, but that coin looks amazingly close to mark free. Is that a hit(s) on the 9 and 0 of the date? That's about all I see. I see no obvious wear, but then again I don't collect or grade gold. I think it is a fine looking coin!

Looks very nice for a 62... what are we missing?

How about some new pics taken with it tilted different ways in the light?

<< <i>Looks very nice for a 62... what are we missing?

My guess, based on the assigned grade, compared to how nice the coin appears to look, is that there is slight friction on the Indian's cheek, but that we can't see it in the images. Or perhaps some light hairlines in the fields.

Baley

I think you're right, Mark, in tilting my head around my monitor like an idiot, looking at the bigger picture, there could be a touch of rub at the cheek and temple, and highest edge of wing

Still, has a good shot at 63

(or 58)
