Why not? It will help to woo those nice ones over to their holders. $$$$$

<< <i>Yup, pcgs says they'll go ahead and take the money for their plastic. And nice plastic it appears to be. Of course I'd need to see it as they say "In hand." But from here I'd say very nice plastic holder. Congratulations!!!! Nice grab. LMAO >>
<< <i>PCGS slab notwithstanding....that coin is naturally toned??
As sure as the sky is up.
<< <i>PCGS slab notwithstanding....that coin is naturally toned??
Yes! It is the goal AT'ers try to reach. There are some really nice Battle Creek and Continental toned dollars out there among the uglies. I don't believe the premiums will hold up for any of them for long though, but ones like this will do fine in the end as long as they don't turn.

<< <i>Looks like a chicken danced on her cheek. >>
No, probably just some contact with other Battle Creek coins... duh!

I frankly like the look of the coin not surrounded by that thick white foam.
<< <i>I'm not trying to be a jerk, but what was your motivation to cross the coin? >>
Tom, no problem whatsoever, and that's a perfectly sound and quality question. I have equal respect and confidence in NGC as I do with PCGS, I just really prefer to view coins in the PCGS holder with the clear surroundings, especially when viewing them under a light source and loop. The glare, for me anyway, is reduced dramatically, and therefore much more pleasing to the eye.

Have no idea, but if the #1 TPG slabs it, who am I to argue? More Kool-Aid, please.
<< <i>Cross over to what? No need to - its an MS 64. It would be grossly overgraded in a 65 slab. >>
There should never be a doubt as to what an MS64 is.
and if it's a liner or a slider... then give it the decimal points. If it needs a pedigree, so what.
I thought the idea is to have the proper grade, designation and attribution if it was to be encapsulated.... but somehow these graders rarely can see eye to eye. It's a fun game isn't it ?

Nice coin. Whats the reverse look like?
<< <i>Cross over to what? No need to - its an MS 64. It would be grossly overgraded in a 65 slab. >>
I think you need to 'brush up' on your knowledge on what it takes to be a 64. This coin, with it's incredible color and lustrous "POP", is a borderline 65 and at least three of the most respected dealers share the same opinion.
Don't think that I have seen many Battle Creek Morgans crossed to PCGS.
I have a few of them stuck back but haven't thought of trying to cross them. Until now that is. Maybe.

From that picture, I would say that the coin is closer to being 63/64 than 64/65. There are just way to many hits on the cheek and elsewhere.

Drink all the Kool-Aid you need 'til your thirst is quenched.
<< <i>Its refreshing to, for once, see a Battle Creek image that isnt "enhanced."
Nice coin. Whats the reverse look like? >>
What's refreshing Greg is an articulated post.
