Question about silver eagle rolls

rawteam1

What possibly could one be searching for in a silver eagle roll that could make it more than just silver bullion?
Is there possibly a gold eagle mixed up in with the silver??? ...
Or a platinum eagle?...Oh brother,LOL...

Yep, looking for 70s.

or strike errors

You guys can tell the difference between a 69 or 70 on an ASE? What's your success rate at that, and be honest.

Truthfully? ASE's are one of the easiest coins to grade for potential 70's...........Best if viewed through a 5x power loop. I prefer a magnifying glass.

a) full strike
b) void of any contact marks, hairlines, clouds or tiny ticks
c) even distribution metal flow
d) no rim damage or dings

If you have one of those, your chances are good in a 70 grade. My PCGS success rate is about 60%....(The one area that I fall short in, is the knowledge of what PCGS considers a Full Strike for a particular year)

I tend to agree on mega popular NCLT like these, although I have seen milk spots on 70s from other countries like Koalas and Maple Leafs. But never seen milky ASE 70s.

First to look for would be strike errors or toning. Then MS70's (if you're that good).

My local dealer found a couple of strike through errors once that come out of a sealed Monster box. One of them was a strike through involving a thin piece of clear plastic film that was still stuck to the coin. He sent it off to ANACS for certification and they peeled off the piece of plastic before slabbing it......
