Better date Morgan (84s)

Curious on your thoughts for this 84s Morgan, particularly a potential grade given the massive bid spread for this coin. Obviously the obverse is holding back the reverse, which has full breast feathers. So you think this coin could straight grade at au58?

Here’s a video of the obverse/reverse with better views.

Thank you for any thoughts.

[wts][wtt] under spot gold grams, fractional silver and platinum

Good afternoon.

https://imgur.com/a/ITmeSp6

Preference is for trades. Primarily looking for gold rounds (including pre33 in PCGS slabs) or engelhard rounds/10 oz bars (not pressed). Will trade gold grams in your favor in a gold/gold trade. Happy to use cash for trade value parity.

Lot 1: $1420, 10 connected valcambi gold grams

Lot 2: $1420, 10 connected valcambi grams

Lot 3: $old, 20 PAMP grams in connected (small) assay

Lot 4: $1050, 5 ms70 2026 1/10 oz platinum kooks

Lot 5: $530, 8 1 oz Armenian Noah’s Ark rounds (some with slight rim milk)

Lot 6: $700, 20 1/2 oz Perth spinner dolphins in OG caps. These were shipped to me in ASE tubes which are slightly larger than the caps. As a result a few have superficial cracks but the coins are great. I will shim the tubes to prevent continued damage to the caps.

Lot 7: $old, 2 1/10 oz platinum Britannias

Lot 8: trade only; peace dollar tubes at $900/tube (14 available tubes)

Shipping is $6/$11. In the event of a documented true loss by usps, I will refund your order.

Take any payment method but crypto.

Cheers.

Gold loyalty status - keep redeeming?

I eat too much protein and have been fairly loyal to ghost. I recently unlocked gold status. I know it will carry into next year, but what’s the play with respect to new codes? Should they be hoarded until status is lost? Is there any perk to entering them now, aside from their redemption value?

Appreciate any thoughts or tips.

PCGS slabbed counterfeit

I understand that PCGS now grades engelhard prospector rounds, but I can’t believe this horrible fake make it into a slab. This is the most rare engelhard round with a mintage under 50. The real round has significantly better detail, is not missing a thumb over the pan, doesn’t have six fingers on the left hand, and includes a dcam finish in the entire lower half, not just where there are “waves.”

Dawn redwood root flare issue

I’ve planted several dozen dawn redwoods over the last 10 years, including about 20 trees in the fall of 2025. I had been growing those trees in 5 gallon fabric pots for the summer until planting. I box cut each rootball at the time of planting. Had a few potential future concerns at the time, but I was focused on establishment with intent to future root prune as needed.

Here is my only problem child. Not a circling root but still concerned with girdling as the trunk rapidly expands.

Is my concern overblown? I have hired arborists for air spade root pruning but wanted a gut check before making a call.
