in Buy, Sell, & Trade - U.S. Coins
Hello,

I am looking to buy some PCGS graded Morgan Dollars for a grading set I am putting together. I have decided on the year/mint of 1881-S for the relative abundance and price. Obviously, the hard part is finding examples in lower grades. I'll list the coins I need to buy below, and if you have one you are willing to sell, please PM me with a reasonable offer. Two things I require: (1) is that the coin be in a new PCGS slab; (2) that there is little or no toning on the coin. Pictures would be great if possible. Thanks in advance!

Coins still needed:
1881-S PCGS G-4
1881-S PCGS VG-8
1881-S PCGS F-12
1881-S PCGS VF-20
1881-S PCGS VF-30
1881-S PCGS EF-40
1881-S PCGS AU-50
1881-S PCGS AU-55
1881-S PCGS MS-60 (bought)
1881-S PCGS MS-61 (bought)
1881-S PCGS MS-62 (bought)
1881-S PCGS MS-63 (bought)
1881-S PCGS MS-64 (bought)
1881-S PCGS MS-65 (bought)
1881-S PCGS MS-66

    Crap, got outbid on a MS-62. I bid pretty strong, higher than some other completed auctions in MS-63. So I still am looking for the grades above in first post.

    Thanks!

    ttt one last time.

    I know this is close to impossible, but thought I would try again and see if anyone has one graded less than MS-60 that they are willing to sell. I probably will have to start submitting some lower grades soon.

    BTW, just bought a MS-63.

    So I have an MS-61, MS-63, MS-64 and MS-65 so far for my grading set.

    It will be tough to find some of the lower grades slabbed..Whats the pop on G4, VG8, etc.?

    Don't know the pops on the low grades. But I agree, I will probably just have to submit those.

    BTW, just bought an MS62 yesterday. image

    Don't you want a 66,67, and a 68?

    Sure! Anyone want to donate one to me in the name of "learning." image

    Actually, those higher grades will have to wait a little while until next year. My plan is to get up to MS67, but that is about it. But first, need to win the lottery. Or, wait until tax returns for the high MS grades.

    Geoman: I think it is great that you are doing this project! Enjoy this project. Remember that half of the fun in doing this is the journey and not the completion of the set. Don't feel that you have a strict time limit.

    Indeed, some of the lower graded coins might be difficult to find already slabbed, especially in PCGS.

    You might want to make this set even more interesting and do a slab set of all the different generations of PCGS slabs in lets say the easiest grade to find (MS-63). That would be a cool addendum to your set!
