@@rockysramblings when grading fees are 5 x cheaper than buying them, I'll surely be sending mine in to NGC I think. Right now locally most commons run about 40-75. There was a 200$ CC and a 400$ 1894 P I've let slip because of my dovishness on capital, grade was Fine on those..
Yes! A pleasure to see a Rambling by Rocky video pop up on a Sunday afternoon! That 64PL was the * star * of the show. On the “repaired” since it doesn’t really show up even when magnified to a 2 foot diameter on TV, my guess is the rim. Do you see that rim ding right at 6:00 o’clock on the bottom? I bet they think someone pressed it back down. Keep ‘em coming buddy!
Its so easy to fall in love with Morgan dollars. I have the same problem. The trouble is we become suckers for them. I know how you feel. I know your pain.
Great video! The repair on the 1895-O looks like it is right below the date. Maybe it was in jewelry once? Regardless, it is a great-looking coin! Cheers.
I'm surprised that other 78 ms 61 got a proof like designation when I've seen some that I thought were absolutely hands down a dmpl but didnt even get proof like designation, gorgeous coins though for sure
Don't feel bad about not being able to distinguish Proof Like attribution - but you need to learn because it's where a lot of the value is because it's the coins that came off of new dies first. So, one could be forgiven for surmising that they could be considered the best coins(Proof Like and Deep Mirror Proof Like).
I’ve gotten better at it since this video. But I have a really hard time still with ones that are in holders. I was told if you look at it from the side and the fields are black then it a DMPL, but I still am not sure. If it’s a raw coin it’s much easier for me.
@@rockysramblings I’ve got a few coins that I believe would get slabbed and others I’m not really confident about because I’ve seen coins that I thought would be slabbed but got details grade. Right now the one thing I’d like to do is submit my own coin that isn’t a modern mint production. I’d be pretty happy because I submitted the right coin and not one that someone else had graded. A MS63-MS66 would be great. I have some that I’m confident would grade MS69/70 or PR69/70 (modern). Best Luck on future submissions.
Nice, the last two in my opinion are over graded. But it's hard to tell on video. Either that or a lot of my pcgs ms 64s are undergraded (which i definitely think they are). Either way that's great you got those grades! Something good from the grading companies finally lol.
If I remember right one of those has a ton of scratches on them and I thought they missed a cleaned coin but I realized later that it’s a very heavily polished die. But I’m happy anyway! Haha
Yep. I started doing that. I realized I was wasting a bunch of money doing that the wrong way. I talk about it in another video. I can’t remember which one
The very least the grading companies can do in regards to "details" designations would be to list which side of the coin the problem is on. Put it on a separate piece of paper.....it's not hard to do people. There's no excuse for not being able to prove one's work.
For some reason (no reason?) coin collectors are extraordinarily tolerant of being unfairly screwed out of vast amounts of money by arrogant people known as grading services who get rich doing it. It's the classic S&M routine. Maybe staring at coins turns people into Little Orphan Annie.
Should make videos of the coins prior to sending them to document the details of your expectations to the world. Isnt there a department of consumer afairs or fair trade act with regard to companies who don't perform their work appropriately and consistently?
Some of my earlier videos do have a submission video but I kinda quit doing that cuz it took so long between videos. Maybe I’ll start again tho since ANACS is much faster
Love Morgans, but find your method of revealing the grades more than a tad annoying. You are far too verbose BEFORE revealing the grade.🤔 Show us the grade, and jabber about it afterward ~ please. 😉
Well with the videos I make doing grades I catch a lot of flack for my grades but the videos pick up and accent a lot of the details that don’t look as bad in person. I think I have a better idea on the “shiny” ones than the duller finished ones. Those get me a little confused because they hide the scratches. At any rate, I’m happy with these results! Haha
