What do you think this rainbow roosie would grade?

p8nt · November 22, 2005 2:48PM

Just curious to see what you think it would grade if it was sent in to PCGS.

Fletcher · November 22, 2005 2:50PM

I don't know what that would grade, but I love the original look

TonedCoinTrader · November 22, 2005 2:54PM

MS 66 Possible 67 If the Luster is there as I don't see any in the pic.

Might FB

Nice Coin!

OldTimeHunter · November 22, 2005 3:01PM

MS 64 or 65. Hard to tell from photos clearly but looks like a nice coin.

The picture was aimed more at color than luster for this set.

Thanks

<< Nice Coin! >>

Thanks again

Send it in.

If it goes 66 or higher I will pay one half of the grading fee. Normal submission only.

I still say 65 at best but who knows you just may get a bump for the nice color that the coin has.

66fb

ms70 · November 22, 2005 9:22PM

Maybe 66. Can't tell about the bands. Nice coin.

DRUNNER · November 22, 2005 10:09PM

Looks like a Mint Set toning pattern . . . . .

As you say, if you shot it for color and the luster is there . . . it's going 66. I send in a few of these . . . and that color seems to be something they like.

I don't see any hits, so it could go 67FB. Worth a shot to have it graded.

kryptonitecomics · November 22, 2005 10:41PM

I think it's a lock for 66 and clearly has a shot a 67....where are the hits that are causing folks to say 65 or lower...maybe I am just blind? Certainly it's difficult to say without holding the coin in hand, but I can't see any major hits on either side of the coin that would keep it out of the Gem + range

mercurynut · November 22, 2005 11:01PM

MS65

ecos · November 22, 2005 11:09PM

I agree with TonedCoinTrader and kryptonitecomics, 66 with good shot at 67 if the luster is there.

Great lookig coin!

I'll back Fairlaneman's offer: if it goes 66 or higher, I will pay the other half of the grading fee (normal submission only).

Way to Go P8nt!

P8nt,

If I were you I would take Ken and ecos up on there offer to pay for the submission. That's a lock 66 shot 67. I
would lean more towards 67. That coins max value would be in an NGC 67*FT holder. I would pay $125 for
it in a PCGS MS67FB holder and $175 in an NGC MS67*FT holder.

Colorfulcoins · November 23, 2005 12:35AM

I think onlyroosies hit the nail on the head.....send it in to NGC and you may get a MS67FT.....send it into PCGS and you may get a MS66FB - and as he states, the NGC is worth more -especially with a STAR. Good luck!

p8nt · November 23, 2005 12:50AM

It is very generous of you guys to offer to cover the submission cost. It all started because I bought this coin from Fairlaneman and we cant agree on a grade

I tried a thread like this once before but the pictures sucked so no one could give me any idea.

Wow. Thats some pretty good money. But at this point I am not looking to sell it. More of just wanted it slabbed (so Ken and I can find out the grade

and so I can take it places and show it around. That being said, I dont know how to submit to NGC. Is there a trusted board member I could send this to and piggyback on their submission?

Fairlaneman · November 23, 2005 12:59AM

No NGC just PCGS for a real grade.

p8nt you might as well try it. Another coin, a raw Trade Dollar, that I graded at XF ended up in a AU53 slab. Maybe the old standards I use are outdated.

Seriously, great job on this beauty.

Fairlaneman · March 31, 2006 5:30AM

Holy Hanna......MS67.....and people think PCGS is a tight grading outfit ! I said the coin was 64 maybe a shot 65 and that was not from seeing the coin only with a picture. The coin was mine before Ben got it.

I better go back to Grading 101 and take it over.

LucyBop · March 31, 2006 6:59AM

and it was a very close call on being full band....

it was a liner full band, and PCGs didn't give it the designation...

It is a coin that I can agree with either call, it is that close...

none-the-less, it is a lovely toner and MS67 is Ultra Gem!!!!!

TonedCoinTrader · March 31, 2006 11:50AM

Super!

It has the Look.
