OK. What makes you guys think it is either 66 or 65? Or, what makes you think it is not 64, or 67?  Edited by Cruisinfusion

Fusion, the obverse has a few field scufs that would keep it out of MS66 territory IMHO. With Morgan dollars, the cheek is super important and this one is not too bad. The reverse is a 66 all day long, but the obverse is just holding it back slightly. swcoin.ecrater.com

Vermontensium:
Let's say the obverse grades Ms65, the reverse 66. Would PCGS (assuming I send it off) graders net grade the coin Ms65 or Ms65+, or not net grade the coin at all? Have you had any experience with PCGS grading?

since its all opinion anyway including the TPG ill say ms 66.depends more on the graders disposition that day than the coin. the few light scuffs are very light as far as the pictures show. definitely a pcgs coin not ngc or anacs. |

My guess was MS-65 WITHOUT reading the comments. I saw the marks on the front which is why I picked that grade.

Looks like the Morgan is MS-65 and the Flying Eagle is VG-08.

I'm going to be a bit the contrarian here on the Morgan - I think the weakness of the strike limits its upside grade. It may still reach MS-65, but MS-66 is probably not achievable.

What a glorious Morgan!  Easily an MS-65, very possibly MS-66, remote chance of MS-67.  |

Moe, if the time comes where I check my e-mails from PCGS and the coin comes back MS-67, I don't know what I'd do. A 1879 Philly MS-67 Morgan sounds unheard of in my collection. That'd be worth tens of thousands... PCGS claims one of that grade would be worth $45,000! $45,000! Wow!

The dollar should go MS-65 easily
The flying eagle should go VG-10

It appears that nine people say MS-65 (some iffy), 6 say MS-66 (some iffy), and 1 MS-67 (iffy)
Sounds GREAT!

Moe, you say "remote chance". Are you saying grading is about chance?
