1888-O Morgan For Grading

I'm not sure if they are all from the same die pair. I am guessing they were all part of the same roll/batch. I inherited them from a great Aunt who was a long time bank teller and collector of Morgans.

I went down the VAM rabbit hole four years ago when I inherited them. I didn't find any of the really cool ones back then, but I sort of ran out of steam

She had a nice collection with some of the more interesting dates and coins, but also a few dates/mm like this with many examples and all BU. I Figure someone else might get some enjoyment out of them.

Strong MS63 for me. Wish I had a great aunt who was a long-time bank teller, and had an interest in coins.

Are you hurting for money? If your answer is No, then I'd hang onto them as long as possible. Spend a day and split into piles (bad vs good) first round 50 and 50, second round 25 and 25, third round 13 and 12, forth round 6 and 6. Then post up those 6 (In separate posts) and ask the experts for grade. Then if one comes in around MS-65 have it graded as a keep shake of your Great Aunt...and silver stack the rest or sell (up to you)

Not hungry for money.. at all. However, is a shoe box full of ungraded MS-61-63s and the occasional 64/65 the way to go?

What about a bulk grading scenario? Is it a case of "you get what you pay for"?

I have a slew of American Eagles and other bullion stackers. Just not sure about the value of keeping a bunch of ungraded, mid level MS Morgans.

I also have a good group of circulated, common date Morgans, maybe 100 or so, that are definitely for stacking. I will hold onto those. I will also hold onto the rare dates that are part of her collection. She had almost finished the four "blue books" of old... anybody have a 1893-s they are tired of? One of the 5 holes to fill.

Thanks for all your input!

Coin photos are like looking through a microscope. My guess is this coin looks far better in hand. I think this one is an MS-64. Nice and original and frosty, the way people want them.
If I were you, I would hold all of these for a couple more years and not sell any of them. These are better than money in the bank.

MS-63+

I would say ms 64 since the modern grading standards are a bit soft imho. I would save the best 5 or so and sell the rest to buy other Morgan's I like. Maybe a single better date Morgan.

I would be at MS-63
