MS63+ this one isn't far from a MS64, just a touch too many marks on the cheek.

I think it makes 64 with some ease, here's a quick cell shot that doesn't magnify the problems....

The second picture does appear to suggest ms64 but the magnified picture shows way to many surface marks to quality it for ms64 not that it really matters 63 or 64 both are pretty common. Carson City Morgans are my favorites thats for sure.

Carson City Morgans are my favorites thats for sure. You have to remember that is larger than life size. If I blow that image up on my 13" Macbook and hold the coin next to it, it's something like 20x larger than the real coin. We'll see when it gets sent in. Probably won't be until near Christmas, but I'm confident this sucker is a 64.

That second picture says MS 64 to me. This is why I am awful at grading Morgans. Very nice coin - I still stand by that statement

I think it could grade MS-64 but no more.

Yep from the second set of pictures I'd say MS64 now. Cheek is very clean.

Glad to see y'all agreeing with me now... my high res pics are designed to highlight and expose flaws. One of these days I'll shoot a super-high grade coin under it.

I'd need a second mortgage on my nonexistent house to buy one of those unless I get very, very lucky. EDIT: If somebody here has one and wants it imaged, just let me know, I'll do it free of charge.
