I have a GSA 1884-CC Morgan with all the papers and box and want it graded

Hello, My name is Doulas Williams and I am a new member, I have several Morgan's I want to get graded. One is a GSA 1884-CC GEM UNC. in the original case with the paperwork and box, I would like to know if I send it in will it be removed from the GSA case or will it be graded and labeled like the other GSA Morgan's I have seen with the wrap around label seal identifying it as graded by PCGS and the grade. Or will it be removed from the original casing and placed in a PCGS holder? The GSA case is in beautiful condition and I would rather not have it removed from the case. can anyone give me a answer? thank you, Douglas Williams

    Most GSA collectors use NGC for grading their dollars. NGC does not put it in an oversized slab and just puts a grading band around the GSA slab, at the bottom. Therefore it can be put back in the GSA box. GSA dollars are the only coins that I get graded at NGC. All others go to PCGS.

    There's not much upside of grading a GSA 82-84 unless it's REALLY nice.

    Otherwise, you're just throwing money away.

    "Common date GSA Morgan dollars typically include coins from the Carson City Mint, such as the 1880-CC, 1881-CC, and 1882-CC, which were part of the large quantities sold by the General Services Administration in the 1970s. These coins are often more accessible to collectors due to their higher mintage compared to rarer dates.

    More important than how common the coins are, is the difference in value between an ungraded and a graded example, when compared to the cost of grading.

    I think ANACS will grade them in the OGP as well.

    Need a Barber Half with ANACS photo certificate. If you have one for sale please PM me. Current Ebay auctions
