I have a 1975 silver coin, was only placed in a airtite last week, was in all 40 years in a plastic flip. Never handled without gloves, nevertheless looks really-really bad.
For comparison, I have a 1996 silver coin, graded and placed in slap same year it came out - looks like it just came out of the mint.
Should be even worse for brass.


Well, if that is the case, maybe I should get them in a graded slap as well.
Anybody know which is the best grading service in Europe?

If you want them graded, then send them to ANACS.
There is two reasons for this:
1. You will most likely not find any European numismatic association willing to grade the coin.
2. The second market value of the coin will be better if using ANACS since they are by far the most experienced and well known when it comes to physcial crypto coins.   
 
Unfortunately ANACS does not have a office in Europe (we are many who would like to see them have one here).
So your coin will have to fly a couple of time more over the Atlantic sea  Smiley
Good luck Smiley

Thanks, I will look in to that!  Cool

Air-tites is the way to go for all my coins, but remember to buy the originals from USA; European ones don't have seal as good as the American!

Personally that is half the reason I like graded coins. Air tites are a good option, but slabbed is the best.

Just curious, lets say the the coin was graded at MS-65. How much would you guys be willing to pay for the coin?

I prefer buying them ungraded.
Just a question, when the coin is in the anacs case, the case is sealed right?

Yep.

Thanks, I thought so. I like to be able to take the coin out of it's case.

That is not good for a brass coin unfortunately. It will get more oxidized the more that happens.

Yeah I understand, I am keeping them in the cases. Are air-tites the best coinholders? I put them in Lindner for now.

airtites are by far best in my opinion

A thousand bitcoins!

Seriously though, beats me. Elianite was ready to pay 2.7 for this one. Go back 10 pages or so in the Goods and Auctions threads, let us know what you find Smiley

I ended up paying 3BTC for an MS-60

I was ready to bid up to 2.7 on this, which I offered to Litcoincollector. He really wanted to keep it Tongue
