    This is something I would resubmit to PCGS and then send it to CAC to be beaned. Easy MS64+ or even a MS65.

    CAC it don't CRACK it.... The Saint has so much more appeal in the rattler.

    That coin will stay in that holder as long as I own it. It'll be off to CAC land shortly.

    Very nice. I need that one for my set, but just a tad out of my current price range.

    What inspired you to buy it? Do you have a customer in mind, or are you thinking of it as a coint to site on for a little while?

    The Coin is rotated in the holder I hope you got a good discount.image

    Other than that I like the Rattler holders and I like that Saint in the Rattler.

    There's an easy way to straighten out the Coin. I'd try to describe the process but it's better to see it. If you
    search on utube you will certainly find someones excellent video on the process. There's no good reason to
    have crooked coins.

    Ordinarily, we would have rotated the coin, however, considering the value, I didn't want to risk any issue with the slab or coin.

    It's certainly the coolest coin that I've handled still residing in a rattler.

    If you gently tap it against your thigh a large weighty coin like that will rotate in a jiffy.

    And to think, I've always looked at Saints as a sort of Bullion Coin ! There's nothing Bullion about a 1932. image

    We do it fairly regularly on *every* other coin we've offered, but in this case, imagine if the holder cracked etc. Just didn't want to risk it.

    This is a really BAD idea for rattlers---all it does is loosen things up more. The process never works, as the coin always moves back to the rotated position and you risk damaging the coin AND the slab.

    One little bit of rattler tab is already loose on the obverse, but no worries, it won't hurt that coin any. It should stay put in that extremely cool holder -- and what a cool coin. I'll admit I wish it was mine! image

    That is a very expensive "common date"!

    I think I would photoshop the image to straighten it before I would start tapping on it!

    I've had a couple of modern gen slabs that were easy rotators.

    Rotate it once for the picture, and forget about rotating it ever again. Give the seller the properly oriented pics so they don't have to rotate it again for pics.

    I don't see that on a miracle day. And a resubmit to PCGS is out of the question.

    hits all over the body on the obverse.

    hits on the rays, between the rays, beside the rays. Even hits on the rim at the coin's 3:30 & 9


    you are being dazzled by beautiful luster.... I see green in more ways than one....

    I'm getting taken to task for the contention that the obverse bag marks as keeping it at a 63 when it obviously has superior luster over so many same era $20.

    Tremendous luster


    Would luster of this magnitude really pull it to a 65?
    Am I grading this classic incorrectly using a modern era coin eye?

    Great coin. And a perfect example of how grading standards have changed in 25 years. I saw of couple of 1929 MS64 Saints a while back that paled in comparison to this 1932.
