Newps: Generic Saint - Grade Revealed

RedHerring · May 30, 2011 8:01AM

Weekend pick up on the ultimate in generic Saints! PCGS said MS65+. I won it last night for the opening bid of $1900 ($2185 w/BP). Price seemed reasonable and the in-hand luster will surely be booming.

Nice clean surfaces. Appears to be at least a MS65. Very nice coin.

I like it and will guess MS64 --> MS65.

BillJones · May 30, 2011 8:11AM

Clean surfaces, but not the blazing luster that many like. I'd say MS-64 because of that.

greghansen · May 30, 2011 8:28AM

I usually guess these a grade too low...so I'll say MS65.

MS63

Little rub, but looks like a very nice 64. That said, I've seen worse in higher number holders.......

MS63+

Very Nice MS 65.

looks 64 to 65 here too ... nice one!

63/64

When I made my guess of MS65, it was based on this coin having better luster than what the pics were showing. In hand under a good light source, I'll bet this coin has very nice luster.

64+

65

Nice one...... Did you swap some of that silver towards it?

I would grade it 63.5 and lean towards the 64 grade.

messydesk · May 30, 2011 10:33AM

65. No nasty marks, no cuts across the rays on either side, good luster.

roadrunner · May 30, 2011 11:22AM

Could have graded either 64 or 65 depending on the day. Really no way to tell. But I like it better as a 64.

MS65

Nice looking Saint!

coinkat · May 30, 2011 11:48AM

I see it as a 65 and suspect the satin lustre is just hard to capture in an image- very nice coin

Yeah Stef, most of that silver's gone now!

Very wise my dear sir

And congrats on a 65+ it must look awesome in hand!

That is a GREAT MS65+. I don't know how some of you grade Saints. I would have bought any date as a 65+ if it looked like that.

Beautiful lustre, natural surfaces, much less rub than many 65's and very clean. The reverse is a 66.
