hey i was wondering what your input would be on these morgans i have and if they would be worth sending into ngc or pcgs. also if ya could put a grade on them, first up a 1880 Source: Source:
and now a 1921 Source: Source: i can say this coin was cleaned by one person at least so might not be worth it
Hello Schmidty Nice coin - look regards the viability of slabbing particular coins and especially US silver coinage, there would be better places for you to source your advice from. Id suggest coincommunity.com its a very large forum and they have numismatic buffs there with more experience than us here. I dont know how much the slabbing would cost you and what the new 'value' of the coin would be. but on the above forum with high resolution photos their members would be able to estimate the grade within 3 MS rating points and suggest whether you should go ahead and do it.
All of those look really nice. If you slabbed them now and they don't get the grades you were hoping for, a couple years from now you would recoup the grading costs most likely anyway because of the increased rarity. I would say go for it. I sold a raw 1883 CC in similar condition recently for $183 USD, just to give you an idea.
Best resource I have seen in a long time from the graders themselves - http://www.pcgs.com/Photograde/ They have an iPhone app as well
That's what im afraid of..spending all types of money to join the membership.....and then they dont slab them due to "improper cleaning"
