Yes, you should wish they were AU58+ with a CAC on it….

Here are some CBH MS62's. Do I wish they were higher grade? Sure. But I can be very happy with 62's.

I like MS 62 coins, but I generally buy the coin and not the grade.

This is by far my favorite 62 I have in my collection. It’s graded 62 but I’ll assure you it’ll grade at least a 64 if resubmitted.
Great thread by the way.

I think my question was convincingly answered in that forum members do have MS62 coins that deserve love. It's been great to see all the wonderful examples from members!

Here are a few 62s in my collection

I have a 63 I love and I'm going to have it Hoodooed.
I doubt it will change the value but I like the concept. Local after the fact value adding. And not physically altering anything.
Just adding extra superstition.
That should be an option on coin sales in the South.
It would give us an edge I think. Only New Orleans.

I picked it because it was shiny and affordable. And after I have it Hoodooed, it will be one a kind.How can I mark it without harming the value?
Laser etching?

How many threads are you gonna keep this up in? And besides, your coin is a 63, not a 62 which this thread is all about. Geez…stop it already. I’m tired of hearing about the Hoodoo Voodoo bs

I paid $30 for this PCGS MS62

@rokky You busted me. But thanks for the one comment. It's all I wanted. And I will get it charmed. I don't know what else I could do to add value. Everyone else said buy a better example. Coins weren't meant to be enhanced or enchanted.
I used to work in this warehouse where this rabbi would come and make a room full of food cost 68% more with some magic words.
So please let me give you a hoodoo coin.0 -
Here is another 62, NGC. I really like this one

I have few MS62's as I mainly buy online and suffer from FOMS (Fear of Missing Something) so I like them "pre screened"by trusted collectors/dealers. the Cent came from Lord M, the quarter from GFRC.8 -

Definitely can find a sweet spot in price for 62s if you’re looking.

I just checked my inventory and my 62s mostly are in a few groups -- Morgans that are better varieties and/or more expensive in higher grades, 17th and 18th century non-US, and British Trade Dollars.
Here's a Morgan and a $2.50 Liberty in 62 that I think are nice.

Usually not my favorite grade, as this thread shows, there are indeed exceptions. To my memory, these are the only 62’s I currently have:

In the bust half dollar world MS62 is usually an attractive, desirable coin. Perhaps not as flashy as a higher grade. Or maybe there's a touch of cabinet friction. I have a couple dozen MS62 CBH's and I love each of them.
Lance.Lance, I agree that the nicer ones have some cabinet friction. But many are choice AUs. You need to see the coin. It also helps to know the die pairing / Overton variety of the particular coin.
