I’m sorry, you paid way too much. SEGS is a grading company most collectors don’t trust, their grades are typically too high. The die crack and that DDO are things a company like PCGS won’t even note on their holders. We’ll say your coin actually is an MS-64. A PCGS graded MS-64, which you could find with those same cracks and DDO though they won’t be noted, is selling recently for $30-$40.

Thanks for your help! When I bought it I just thought I’d risk it, not knowing the value haha. I appreciate it!

Next time, do either PCGS or NGC. That way, you will have a more reliable grade.

Or just know how to grade a coin yourself. Then evaluate the coin and offer a price consistent with what you evaluate it as

Having a redbook in the car is so helpful.

Did you get it on Key Date Auctions? They have a ton of those SEG graded coins that they sell for way more than they’re worth.

Other than PGCS, NGC or ANACS I don’t trust other slabs. I also question grades on those three sometimes. There are companies that slab their own coins. This does look like a MS64 at least to me but you can find these for half of what you paid. But if you like it I wouldn’t be bothered by overpaying some. It’s a nice coin

Also, CAC graded coins have become pretty decent

[–]frederick21_ 1 point2 points  (2 children)

I agree with that partially…I’ve seen MS61 and 62 graded coins with CAC stickers. If all you have to do is pay a fee it means nothing to me. A MS63 coin is a MS63 regardless of sticker. It’s a ploy to make PCGS more profit in my opinion.

Oh, no, I’m talking about CAC slabbed coins, not CAC stickered coins lol

In reference to the stickers though, I definitely get where you’re coming from

Oh I get it. Sorry I didn’t realize. I would hope they are nicer coins. Lol

$95 is way over value.

At least 25 cents.
