The 1889-CC Morgan dollar, cropped out of its holder

A grade is one person’s opinion.
The market prices it as a fact.

Grade-to-Bid asks a pool of experts what they would pay for a coin without showing them the label. Sealed, bonded, revealed at once.

Both sides, no label

This is everything the pool sees. No grade, no cert number, no seller’s description — the coin, and what you can read off its surfaces.

Your turn

What would you pay for this?

The label

Someone has already put a number on this coin.

Put a number on it above — or skip — and the grading company’s answer appears here.

The market gave that coin a different number. Grade-to-Bid is what happens when you ask the second question first.

What the market pays, by grade

Four points on a scale, and the price doubles.

XF40$5,000
XF45$5,750
AU50$10,000
AU53$11,000
AU55$13,000
AU58$20,000
MS60$26,500

Name a number above and it lands on this scale, beside what each grade is worth.

Retail values for the 1889-CC Morgan dollar, non-CAC. A grading opinion is worth the distance between two of these rungs.

The mechanics

Four rules, and what each one is defending.

Sealed
Nobody sees another bid before the reveal, so nobody anchors to it.
Bonded
A bid holds liquid SLVR equal to the full bid amount, debited the moment you submit. Never forfeited — it is released in full.
One shot
No revising after the fact. The first number is the honest one.
Revealed at once
Every bid surfaces together — fewer than the seller asked for and nothing is revealed at all. The seller then has 48 hours to take one bid or none.

The pool

Think you have the eye?

Bidders bond SLVR against their bids and need to be reachable the moment a session opens, so the pool is members only.
