1926-S Peace Dollar new arrival - Grade me!

ashelandasheland Posts: 23,767 ✭✭✭✭✭

I just got this one today, I don't plan on grading it, but maybe some day I will.
I have a grade in mind and wondered what you guys think. I'm going to keep it in a Capital holder for now.

    I can't really make a good guess from the image, but I like it.

    Nice Original Looking Coin there buddy! I will say ms64 ;)

    Really tough to say from the lighting of the pics, but my guesstimate is between au55 to ms62

    Hard to tell from the photo but there's at least one major mark on the cheek and seems to be sufficient chatter in the obverse field to max out at ms63. IMHO

    All comments reflect the opinion of the author, evn when irrefutably accurate.

    I would give it a good acetone bath....there seems to be some residues there.... definitely some marks... I would say MS62..... Cheers, RickO

    Looks nice. Can we see it with more light?

    Need a simple shot in plain old daylight to really tell! Looks nice though.

    Thanks. :)
    It was hard to capture without it looking dark, I agree with the 63 grade, possibly 62 if they are being tough.

    From what I can see, 62 looks about right. I don't think I'd send it in unless I had a large economy sub going at least. I had a real flashy 26-s in 62, think I only got about $60 out of it. It had similar scuff marks on the neck and chin. I'll have to see if I can find a picture of it somewhere.

    @ChrisH821 I agree, I would only send economy if ever as the price doesn't really justify it.
    I would like to see your coin if you have pics.

    @ChrisH821 That's a really nice looking 62!
    Thanks for posting it.

    Sure looks better than 62.

    PCGS is tough on Peace Dollars, my grading system for them works like this, I just subtract 2 points from my first impression, in this case I saw a 64 right off, so it should grade 62
