Title: 1933 PENNY
Post by: stevo1962 on September 03, 2015, 07:28:10 AM
Anybody want to have a stab at the grade of this penny I bought at a very
low price uncontested from an auction house earlier in the year.I have the
PCGS grade back and will reveal all later tonight

I will guess at MS64BN as PCGS are very hard on giving out grades MS65 and higher on coppers. Regardless it seems nicer than a typical 64 so a 65 is certainly in the question.

I'd say 63 or 64BN.  It's really hard to say from those images if there's any underlying bloom on the obverse.  If there isn't I'll go 63.  If there is, 64.

64BN for me, however knowing your luck I wouldn't be surprised with MS65RD

Geez if Trout keeps this up there will be not need for him to send them to PCGS, he can slab his own!

Would that mean that PCGS would be:

Post Coins (to) Geraldton Sunshine

(best I could do on short notice)

You'd probably prefer a 1964 penny wouldn't you?
Title: RE: 1933 PENNY
Post by: robbiegal on September 04, 2015, 07:24:41 AM
yes - and you have given me some absolutely stunning 1964 pennies, so I am good!

it is really dumb I know but I would almost pass over that coin for a stunning 1964 Y. penny
ummmm .... maybe not  it would have to be a ms 66 for that!

your collection must be absolutely stunning by now
both yourself and Trout and developed into very fine collectors of the pre-dec's
I get envious but I comfort myself by going through my coin albums after seeing all the beautiful coins that you guys post pictures of

luckily though, I do have a nice 1933 - should post a pic and ask opinions but it is raw - only got a couple of nice 'ol king g v's in my collection but I wuvs them

Bloody nice coin RG that looks very similar mine even down
to the die polish lines on the obverse.Have you ever thought
of getting it slabbed?
Title: RE: 1933 PENNY
Post by: ausproofs on September 04, 2015, 10:04:24 PM
Thats a one nice coin RG, I dont even like copper ! You should get that slabbed for sure.. At least to protect it from environmental damage..
Title: RE: 1933 PENNY
Post by: robbiegal on September 04, 2015, 10:12:22 PM
thanks guys
I have THOUGHT to get it slabbed
I THINK about it a lot!! ha ha
my dealer said that if ever I wanted to seel it to put it through Belinda Downies auctions as he thought it to be top shelf

I did notice the similarities in the die polish marks Steve

ps
are they worth a bit in that grade ? (in a slabbie)

Yes, if you get 65BN it would be $1000 + I would say.. I think your coin will do better just for eye appeal...

Get it slabbed RG, you don't want Belinda's "Gnarly" Fingernails all over that Beauty :cray:
I don't normally get excited about coppers but the eye appeal on your 33 is outstanding.
It is a very "Elegant" Coin :yahoo:
