AU55 & solid strike, TPG might give a generous 58. Great pickup.

While I'm not a Morgan dollar collector I would give this coin AU-53/55 all day long ! Good going .

How is this AU-55? I see strong, full luster and hardly any wear. Any other series would get an instant AU-58. Why are Morgans so much more-harshly graded?

It's a nice morgan but looks pretty chewed up. I'd say MS-60. Most AU/55/58 coins that I've seen and own have very clean fields and devices.

Definitely better than EF but I can't really go higher than AU-53 on this one - cheek very busy and there's a lot of luster missing from handling

Where is the missing luster?

Quote: Where is the missing luster? There are dull spots on the cheek, combined with the fact that the cheek is really chewed up. Some might call this MS-60, but I'd rather own an AU-58 with a slight rub and smooth cheek than this piece piece. I think it's worth AU-50 to 53 money. Buying this for EF money was a good deal, but it wasn't "a steal."

I am thinking the picture does not show what this coin really looks like.
