Com on and give her a shot. I will post up tomorrow night the actual grade from ANACS. There is a VAM in this. Micro O and die cracks. That was not attributed. Go ahead and give her a shot. Now I know why I pay to much for coins. Bryan is DA man. Nice work my friend. AU 58 on the nose. Now I know how I pay to much for coins. I over grade them way to often.

This is a nice strike for a New Orleans mint coin. Even with the lack of luster I'm going to say at least MS-63.

I agree. The obverse looks stronger strike wise. I'll say MS62.

wow, you guys are tough! I'm not a Morgan collector but I can't see anything from keeping it from being a 65

Its tough for me to try to get any of the toning to show, There is no luster, it has toned to a light purple/pink on the obverse, and blues,purple, pink and some greens on the wings.

O mint marks are tough for me but I was thinking AU-58 but with it being a O mint it could be a MS-63 I guess. I hate even saying anything but since I did look at the topic I will stick to my answer, when I looked at the coin my first thought was AU-58

My thoughts echo Bryan ... AU-58 with the lack of luster and what I thought could be a rub on the hat, but I'm no expert and it could be MS.

see, I told you I don't collect Morgans so I'm not up on grading them.....
The original pictures did make it look better though.

bman, don't feel bad, this is how we all learn. Believe me I have made mistakes before and definitely will again when it comes to grading and I DO collect these things
