  1. The Peace Dollar began in 1922. Must have been worn around someone’s neck for many years to wear it like that. It’s all post mint damage and the hole makes it pretty much melt value. I just had a 1922 graded as an ms63 and it’s only worth $50
  2. Ok Guys I get it. Some fine adjustments and voila ! Am I doing better?
  3. I believe this is called a linear plating bubble. https://www.coincommunity.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=227243
  4. VK you’re brutal man . I’ll work on it some more
  5. I just bought a wifi digital microscope from Amazon and it lets me see and capture fine close up photos. example and a picture of the device
  6. Probably just barely but I’ve wanted them graded as I’ve had the Morgan’s and Peace dollars for 20 years. I just popped for the ASE “w” proof limited to 337,440 and got one. I have to send that one in for sure. Just a pleasure collector but someday the grandchildren will enjoy them.
  7. My Morgan finally got shipped today !. Final grade is VF35 Not totally disappointing but hoped for more. grading shows value of $50. On a more positive note the 1921 Morgan score an MS63 and the 1922 Peace dollar scored ms63 finally the 108 Silver Eagle scored MS67,so all in all not a bad day for me at NGC. These coins were submitted under economy grading and received by them on December 29th. I'm glad I submitted them.
  8. Looks like it would be worth it. There is an AU on eBay for $325 1790-MO FM Mexico Charles III 8 Reales Coin 8R - Certified NGC AU Details! ngc coin values https://www.ngccoin.com/price-guide/world/mexico-spanish-colony-8-reales-km-107-1789-1790-cuid-1116235-duid-1424789
  9. You can't remove them without damaging the surface
  10. Just wondering since they are second reich coins if they are worth hanging on to. Thank You
  11. Thank You very much. I didn't check there. How do you thin my image was? I have been working hard on improving images. I have a Nikon D5600 with a Macro close up lens with a crop sensor and high Megabit capture. Personally I think I can get better on it with practice. Thank You for your help'
  12. I have several coins in grading right now at the Grading/Quality Control State. One of them, an 1887 Morgan Silver dollar has the following status on the submission status line 1887/6 TOP-100 $1 VAM-2 Thanks in advance.
  13. Well at the time, I was not even aware of the NGC forums. I didn't even get of picture of it before I sent it. These are all things a newbie learns in the process. Thanks The same
  14. I have about a dozen old MEXICO coins anybody want to provide their opinion on them. Please don't say they suck!
  15. I totally Agree, The forms and rules are complicated. After joining NGC and submitting my first coin to them, (n 1895 Morgan Silver dollar, I simply printed the generated submission form, Filled out my name in the PDF, manually checked US coin, check Decline conservation, Checked ship method UPS, Grading tier Early bird and circled $35, checked appearance review and filled out the list with qty 1, year 1895, Mint Mark S, denom, 1.00 and MS, estimated value $300 and total value $300. Under Fees, checked 1 tier at $35, added the $10 Handling fee, and 24.00 shipping fee for a total of $59 Date 7/8/2020 The Horrible news I got back was that it was NOT GENIUINE 100% conterfiet. My bad, I didn't know how to check by weight and accurate measurement. I do not own a micrometer but did have a scale. So lesson Learned. KNOW WHAT YOU ARE SENDING, and decide if it is worth the 50-60 to get it graded. I have slabbed the coin with the NOT GENIUNE tag as a reminder for me to do a better job. Note, I have since submitted five Genuine coins in their original holds and the grading is in process. However, I got cheap and indicated "Economy" and have waited since 12/29 for the return so please check Early Bird/Standard on your submissions. Thank You. Hope I helped someone out through my lesson learned.
  16. I got one at 12:05pm. I am elated. One site on Facebook stated the coin sold out in five minutes. Might be the best 5 minutes I ever spent, not to mention $79 with tax and shipping.
