In this video, I will reveal the grading results of my coins that I found either coin roll hunting, through cherry picking junk silver purchases, or have had in my collection - through my submission to PCGS. I hope you enjoyed this video and found it informative. Keep hunting and good luck! They're still out there for us to find! Thanks for watching!

I think you did perty good brother. I've had submits come back that have kicked me square in the jeweler's most coveted. Looks to be that you came out ahead and added a nice boost to your portfolio, if you will. You're a smart man, you understand the world events unfolding, esp in your own back yard. Those coins have potential to skyrocket in value, now that their numismatic value has been pinned to them other than just their intrinsic melt value. Very nice bro👍 Y'all stay safe, Peace🙏🕉️
I want to have my great grandpa's Morgan graded. It's an 1879 P, and it's at least in MS 62 condition. It's not worth a fortune but due to the sentimental value i want a good holder to protect it
That 79-O is definitely a really nice AU58 but I think it's the correct grade. Too much *light* wear in the fields. The 1893-S more than offsets that small loss though so still a huge win!
Idk dude, all the time you show these coins that are “questionably cleaned” they look pretty obvious on my end. Could just be through the camera, but if that’s the case, I’d recommend filming your coins prior to submission. A lot of these should be easy catches Edit: maybe not cause I agree with the 1893-s looking cleaned lol
I am not good at grading. This is mainly why I watch these unboxings. You give out great information for me to learn by. Thank you very much! I didn't see why you got the lower grade on some but I think it is because of the slight differences in grading. I am definitely still learning.
great video very good submission. that 1879 o at the end was for sure under graded. i dont know why they hate giveing out ms 61 but i agree with you still ms coin. (it dont really change the value to much if you end up selling it). have a good one and keep up the good work.
I love PCGS unboxing videos! You had some great coins and grades - and of course, PCGS always delivers a few "negative" surprises. But another great video!
You give me some hope with coins I submitted to ANACS. The two I'm mostly looking forward to getting back are a 1922 No D Lincoln in VF I cherry picked out of a roll of 1922-Ds and a 1921-D PL or DMPL Morgan I cherry picked out of a group of 1921-Ds. I sent in some other better Morgans to see what grades they give, including an 1895-O in VF, an 1899-P in MS 63, a 1901-P in MS 63 and a 1903-O in MS 65.
Thanks for the grading unveiling, Rob. Excellent get on the 1893-S(And it does look cleaned, by the way). I thought overall it was a pretty good haul (Nice spitting eagle by the way). The two that stood out as "bs" for me was that last one and the merc. To me, the marks on the reverse (dime) are a part of the circulation/wear. I just got back a submission and had them do the almost exact thing happen to an 1881 Morgan that they did with your 1879-O. And I reacted the exact same way that you did! ("Wah?). Hope you're feeling better! Cheers!
“Nicely damaged” - 42/41 dime I think the 93-s looks cleaned, but maybe that’s just on video. Definitely a “buy the coin, not the slab” thing. I think the reverse looks great. The 79-o I’d want in an AU58 set - I don’t see the wear - could be the video.
As far as grading goes, I'm still learning how to do it. I've learned more about Morgan dollars from you than others. Some day, I'll get my 1880 O micro O Morgan graded. Thank you for the information that you provide.
I really appreciate your unboxing videos and you giving your thoughts and strategy for grading. It’s been really helpful. I’ll soon be submitting and decided to not submit a few because I realized, thanks to your videos, it’s likely a waste of money. Some coins that I was initially going to PCGS will now be submitted to NGC.
Yeah I think you got hosed on the 1879-O. Theres no wear at all on that coin. Apparently it got jostled around quite a bit in a mint bag causing all those bag marks.
Your video has taught me alot about your coin submissions, It get's confusing sometimes, but watching helps out. Nice Coins Rob and Thanks 😊 Enjoy the rest of your weekend, say hi to Charlani
The Mercury Dime grade is unfortunate. It seems as if the grader came to this after looking at proof coins. When I think of damage on coins this coin would not be included.
I love your unboxing videos! Could you please explain what you mean by insured it for an ms63? I've never sent them coins and I'm super curious. Thank you so much for the great video!❤
You have to declare a perceived value of the coins you submit for insurance purposes. If the package gets lost, you can get reimbursed for the value but you also pay more for j Durante so you gotta give it the best reasonable value.
I think you did pretty well, but I did feel that 1879-O looked circulated. I'm sorry you didn't get higher on it, but you more than made up for it on the 1893-S. Thanks for taking us along for the ride!
I thought they were harsh on the Mercury. I have a 93-S but it’s in a PCI holder. I am sure the diagnostics were there when I brought the coin, but I can’t see it now. My vision is fading fast. Had it a long time. Paid $1,500.
Rob, if I had any of the rarer Morgans or even some more common ones, I am sure probably 99% would come back cleaned, or 2 to 4 grades below what I thought. I don't have any expertise in the field and always think I have more value than I do. Just saying.
I do not think that damage on the dime should of got you that grade! You had a very tough person doing your dime. I think you could roll the dice grade it again come out better! I have a coin with more damage than that and pgc did not even hit me that bad. Nice coins Brother!
VAM is actually the last name initials for Leroy C. van Allen (VA) and A. George Mallis (M). These two did an extensive listing of die varieties of Morgan and Peace Dollars, which is the source of the VAM numbers. If you do an Internet search for "VAM World" you will find a website that lists the VAM varieties. Finally, Whitman Publishing LLC has released guidebooks on both Morgan Dollars and Peace Dollars.
It would be nice if they would offset your wins with your losses. Yes, you have to pay more the the 1893-S but wish they would offset the ones you overestimated.
To be honest, I have to agree with PCGS on the last coin. I think you were out of your mind to think you could get more than MS 60 on that one. AU 58 seems about right, I probably would have said MS 60 though.
I have an unusual coin collection . All bought in Washington DC in the early 70's. 392 total . How do you get 392 coins graded? All were bought very fine when I didn't know much just put them in a safe for 5O years. In Phoenix
im certain your a better grader than those who graded your coins...swear they give bad grades on purpose...ass if they wernt having a good day its a tough game in the graded coin world... i my self wouldnt do it unless it was a speacel coin...rather buy them already graded let some one else do the hard work...

Man they got quite a racket making you pay upfront and guessing what the grading is and then when it comes back lower than what you paid for they don't give you the money back the difference back what a racket
Hey Rob, once you've been kicked in the nards with a "questionable color", it's hard to imagine any unboxing coins disappoint you. But I can agree as to why you were disappointed, you put a lot of time and effort into these coins before submitting that it's a huge bummer when they come back like that. Overall great video, sorry about the ungraded/undergraded ones brother. As always, keep it up brother!
It always confuses me when PCGS boldly declares a coin is not gradeable yet "XF Details" absolutely is a grade, it's just not on as a precise scale as problem-free coins.
