@williamstokes2312 Жыл бұрын

Excellent video! Your thumbnail showed a Morgan with toning that went from raw to MS68, this is the fantasy of many collectors because the coin also had super toning. Unfortunately in the real world PCGS usually throws their "punt" grade of Questionable color on such coins. I won a 1948 BTW at an auction that was well-fought, paid the $150 Show Grade fee after being encouraged by a toning expert and professionals at my LCS only to have it come back holdered QC in less than an hour. At the next show I resubmitted this coin for "restoration" and the jury is still out. You are right about the wait! Your details in packing and shipping are great but with my very first submission I opted to send to the Fed Ex address on the form using the one day service. Not only was I certain that my coins would arrive (because I put so much insurance on them), it would also cut down on my wait. Yes this was not cheap but neither was my submission. I'll be looking forward to the grades on your gold hoard.

Thank you for this. I have an old 1925 Stone Mountain half dollar, and I'm sure everyone says this, but that after looking at it under a loupe and comparing to what's been graded already, I think it might be MS68. Its flawless. Its the first coin I've ever found that I'm sure is worth doing this its just I hate not knowing and especially because I'm not an expert and aware of how people react when they think they've found something really good. I'm positive this one is different so I'm going to send it in express and see what happens. Whatever grade I get I'll update this just for continuity.

Just a couple questions… I just received the reverse proof Morgan/Peace dollar set. Do I send to PCGS in the box from the mint, or take the coins out and place the proof coins in the plastic holders? I assume the set counts as grading two coins? Also, I would like to have them in a slab as a set and not separate if possible but don’t see that option on the submission form as an option. Any help is appreciated.

You may have already answered this, but what if the coin isn’t listed in the PCGS library? For instance, an 1895 Morgan Silver Dollar (no mint mark) isn’t listed. So how would one go about adding a coin like that that doesn’t have a number?

Hello Silver Picker, I have 45 Morgan Silver dollars , 18 are in box sets and the rest are encapsulated in a portfolio. Do they have more value as a set or would getting them graded in crease there value. The one set of five only has two that I would consider getting graded the other three are heavily circulated. The rest are in great condition I believe and are worth getting graded.

@Silverpicker Жыл бұрын

If the coins get high grades then grading them will definitely make them more valuable. Having them in a set doesn’t really affect the value much

Anyway great video...now do the reveal.

Why not use a box when you ship your coins? I recently had a very fragile item that was shipped, well insulated, in a box. When I got it, it actually had tire tracks on it, and half the box was flattened. Surprisingly the item arrived intact. I’d worry about coins getting bent in envelopes.

Are you forced to suggest your own pr or ms number ? And moreover, if you don't reach that grade then they send it back unslabbed. ? For example , should I put the coin in for €100,000 value ( just in case it gets to a pr70 or should I put the Franklin coin into the €10,000 category .and suggest a lower pr number. I want to go higher not lower to re submit all the time.

I would like to take it in baby steps. As I am new to coin collecting. I would like to learn more on how I can make this new hobby of mine into an investment. In fact I would like to become my own coin appraiser someday. So, can I send in one coin at a time once I get my membership account set up with PCGS? I was also finding info not to clean my coins that have been circulated. Please provide more info in all I need to know as this video was very helpful! Thank you so much. I already invested in my coin weigh scale and a magnifier that I can hook up to my laptop to take pictures and create a file for pictures of coins I have found. I have ordered a book on histories of coins and their values. I think I am on the right track? Thumbs up!

@brianregan1 Жыл бұрын

Great information, but what if you were submitting a 1960 quarter that you think is going to grade between ms-68 and ms-69 how would you go about submitting that? clearly the value would be over 10k so would you have to choose walk through or maybe express . and then get your number from any graded 1960 quarter they have in their data base ? because I don't think they have ever graded one as high as 68 or 69 before. this is all so frustrating . sorry to bother you with these questions. I am clearly a rookie and do not have a clue what I am doing. insuring your shipment is another thing. how can you insure it if you don't know the declared value ? Thank you for your help , I appreciate you and your channel

@hughhistory7478 7 ай бұрын

Hi Brian . I'm in the same boat as you , a lot of it doesn't make sense .I'm a rookie too, and been collecting us coins since 2019.. I have some good coins that may exceed the current allocated grades. So they ,pcgs ,as the experts, want us to chance a grade based on no knowledge, so that they as an get us to re submit if we fail to get the grade.

@brianregan1 7 ай бұрын

@@hughhistory7478 I will not use PCGS I have in the past, I sent in a previously graded 1953 proof penny they graded as an ms68 fs 401 re engraved penny. I thought it was closer to an ms69 so I sent in in to get re graded it came back as an MS 67 penny without the re engraved variety . i also sent in two 1968 repunched mint mark quarters that came back low grade regular quarters without the rpm variety . they are slipping badly and I believe anacs and NGC are far more accurate than pcgs is today less expensive as well
