The goal being liquidity, what would you do with these "problem coins"

[RI AL]

11 remaining coins in my type set are in SEGS, NTC slabs and 1 in NNC. Yesterday I sent in a batch of SEGS to PCGS for crossover, which leaves 4 SEGS, 4 NTC and 1 NNC. Of these I have 5 coins that are decent pieces but have "issues". With my ultimate goal being ease of liquidity, may I impose on your knowledge and skills again and get your advice.

 

Here are 2 SEGS half cents: brightened considerably. Actually, I don't see a problem with the 1806 and LIBERTY is quite sharp with coin in hand. I think this one would cross. The 1797 is a mess, but a mint made mess. I don't expect NGC would touch this one, and PCGS would probably "genuine" it. What would you do with the 1797. I tried better pictures on this one but got the shadow from the angle of the sun. Thanks!! RI AL

2 silver dollars...hopefully these will scan better

 

The 1795 is cleaned, but does not show hairlines from abrasive. I know PCGS will certify cleaned early dollars but would this one qualify? The 1873 has quite a few very light scratches on the shield, which don't look natural...still SEGS gave it a blue slab which I believed meant it is not a problem coin. (Pink, like the 1795 dollar I believe did indicate problem coin).

 

What's the smartest move for these, keeping liquidity as the #1 factor?

 

Thanks again!!!!! RI AL

I would send them to NCS for details grading. However, the 1806 label does not mention a problem. "Worn dies" are typical of the issue. On the 1797, "massive die failier" isn't a problem description either, though I have no idea if the labels are correct.

Here is the last "problem coin" I can't make up my mind what to do with. In a NNC slab now. I posted her before and got many great suggestions from you guys but I just can't decide. I'm leaning toward NCS because she could use a facelift on the obverse (that brown stuff is not gunk nor corrosion, at least under the microscope). What I'm afraid of is that NCS will return her to me in a nice slab all shined up, and I don't want that.

The obverse picture is lightened to show that there is still a bit of life in the old gal. I guess there is always "genuine" from PCGS, but if NCS could improve the look of her a bit, I would enjoy her a lot more. Any opinions (sorry to ask again but I am torn.) She is crooked in the slab too. Gee...maybe she could make the NCS coin of the month??

Ooops...posted this in the wrong place. Sorry!!

 

Last week I got an auction pulled off of e-Bay because I was selling a coin in a "no-no" slab, but I did not mention the slab company in the heading. They pulled it because I named the slab company in the description, even though it was clearly visible in the photos. Anyway, here's one from PCI. 140298628888 and it clearly states PCI in the heading. I guess E-Bay can't keep track of everything...

 

Oh, I just went back in to E-Bay and found there are currently 3 SEGS listings with SEGS mentioned in the heading. Now that I go back and check again, there are a bunch of PCI listings. Just search PCI and there they are along with about 30 NTC slabs. A couple of ACG (not Canadian) are there too all with the slab names in the heading.

 

Guess I was just one of the lucky ones...

PCGS does the whole 'Genuine' thing now, so unless a coin needs to be conserved, I'd go straight to PCGS for a genuine holder.

Ditto! You'll get better money for them too, I bet.

I not a PCGS man but that is what I would do also. Make them more sell-able!!
