- I got this coin in hand and then realized the black streak on Liberty’s face is PVC. The cloudy dark area on the reverse it likely also PVC. Is this worth restoring via a dip in acetone or should I return it to the dealer? The coin looks like it could upgrade to a 63 but it’s hard to tell if PVC caused any pitting.I got this coin in hand and then realized the black streak on Liberty’s face is PVC.

- bretsan That may end up hurting it. Dipping shouldn't be needed for more than a few seconds, then rinsed under water, then gently patted dry with a lint free cloth. Did you dilute the solution?[bretsan] That may end up hurting it. Dipping shouldn't be needed for more than a few seconds, then rinsed under water, then gently patted dry with a lint free cloth.

- RyanG I didn’t end up using a silver cleaner for dipping. The acetone doesn’t react with anything but the PVC. The risk is that the PVC has damaged the coins surface since it’s been on there for a long time.[RyanG] I didn’t end up using a silver cleaner for dipping.

- alaura22 Agree. Worst thing that could happen would be that it looks way better with the same grade. I think it’s got a great shot at 63 at least.[alaura22] Agree. Worst thing that could happen would be that it looks way better with the same grade. I think it’s got a great shot at 63 at least.

- wall79 That’s exactly my plan, most of my coins (75%) are PCGS CAC except for my NGC GSA CC Morgan dollars and I had WAY too much money in those years before PCGS certified GSA’s. In fact it’s why removed most coins and won’t renew. I actually had to send them (PCGS) a picture of a GSA as they didn’t know what they were. And yes I still have the emails exchanged.[wall79] That’s exactly my plan, most of my coins (75%) are PCGS CAC except for my NGC GSA CC Morgan dollars and I had WAY too much money in those years before PCGS certified GSA’s.

- ToddPollock Well they are not grading (stickering) on the plus. If you send them a 66+ PCGS coin, and they sticker it, it is only a 66 to them. I think they are very clear on that.[ToddPollock] Well they are not grading (stickering) on the plus. If you send them a 66+ PCGS coin, and they sticker it, it is only a 66 to them.

- Rule556 Of course they give a bump themselves! Their registry does not validate other TPG coins so you can enter anything you want. We verify every coin on this system.[Rule556] Of course they give a bump themselves! Their registry does not validate other TPG coins so you can enter anything you want.

- On a double die the doubled detail will have a rounded edge, not a sharp shelflike edge. Shelf doubling is actually fairly common.On a double die the doubled detail will have a rounded edge, not a sharp shelflike edge. Shelf doubling is actually fairly common.

- crepidodera so a DDO/DDR would have to have everything look "doubled" or can it just be some words cause there's a distinct stampage on the O and othter letters nstead of a press-down look that usually surrounds the entire letter.

- Todd,
Is there anyway to make a custom set (like boxes of..) and leave “blanks?”
i.e.
GSA’s
1878-cc
1878-cc VAM 11
1878-cc VAM 18
1878-cc VAM 24
1879-cc
1879-cc VAM 3
ETC.
I’m not asking you to make a set, just wondering if I could make a complete set with blanks and fill as I find them. As of now 33 different all labeled as appropriate VAM. Still missing three.

- If you get it certified (unless it grades very high) it's probably worth about ten dollars just because it's certified. Grading fees are higher than that, though. Generally they're just worth face. Even in the wrapper, you'd be lucky to get a Dollar for it.If you get it certified (unless it grades very high) it's probably worth about ten dollars just because it's certified.

- I may not be the most educated person on this but i would recommend going to a collector, due to the coin being in a good condition you may be able to get 10 dollars for it. Sending it in to be graded would set you back a lot because the coin only jumps in value around MS 65 and it is hard to guarantee that grade. Overall getting a coin collector who needs it for a set and selling it to them is the best option.I may not be the most educated person on this but i would recommend going to a collector, due to the coin being in a good condition you may be able to get 10 dollars for it.

- Hello and good evening here is another coin I have in my collection that I am wondering if it would be worth grading. I have held on to most of my coins I have for the last 3 years and am ready to take next step if worth it to have it graded. Any feedback is good feedback back thank you

This coin was cast. As SSmith said you better check the weight and test on a sigma. It may not even be 90% Silver.The coin is most likely not real.

- Hi there, not to discourage you or offend you, however something seems off about this one. Try weighing it and checking the diameter if you can–it should be 26.73 g ±1 g and 38.1 mm. Aside from that, 1886 is a very common Morgan (there were almost 20 million minted). If it were mint state/uncirculated, it could be worth grading however I am of the opinion that this one is probably XF. Probably not worth grading, but the doubling and what seem to be die Chips that you pointed out could be a VAM (one of many varieties on Morgans and Peace Dollars). That could add some value if it is a VAM. Check the weight if you can. Hope this helps!Hi there, not to discourage you or offend you, however something seems off about this one.

- Hello my name is Michelle and I am new to this group. I had found out about you guys through Great Collections and was told to post here to find out whether I should get these graded or not! Great collections told me that if I were to get them graded to let them know and they would be happy to auction them off I just want more opinions on what I should do as everyone knows grading isn't cheap. Any kind of feed back would be amazing as I am not sure if I am seeing this correctly or not as I believe they have some errors on them. I will start with my 1964 no mint mark full bands Roosevelt dime. I may post more then one posting for your help ! Thank you so much in advanceHello my name is Michelle and I am new to this group.
