all 3 sets of photos make the coin look different. not sure which one is what it looks like in hand
the cheeks marks imo will not detail it. the 2nd set of photos shows more luster. the 3rd set makes the coin look flat and lifeless. if the luster is there for the most part it could go as high as MS63. if the fields look dull and lifeless it could have been dipped. using the last obv photo you posted it does appear to have decent luster remaining so I'm leaning to the MS63

Thanks all, appreciate the thoughts.
Question for everyone. I paid well under half of what a 62 retails at, would this be a coin to consider grading?

Just took this coin to local trusted coin shop. Their opinion is 63. They are delivering to CACs next month when they are there for me (which will save me some dollars) I will let everyone know it grades at once I get it back.

This is a big coin. It sells for $700 as a 62 and $1,300 as a 63. Looking forward to seeing the TPG's opinion on this one. IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: " It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

CAC is tough, chances are it will come back MS-62 from them.

Don't think the facial scratches are severe enough to detail the coin.
Looks like there is enough friction and field disruptions to drop it out of MS. I'd assign AU-58 based on these photos. Quite a nice Morgan nevertheless!

58 through 61 is likely .
Depends on the grading service
day of the week (in)competence of
individuals at the service. How much
coffee consumption etc.
IMHO a slider Unc as we used to call these .

thank that LCS owner. here is the cost to grade via CAC
CAC - $99 subscription ($50 grading credit), economy grading $15, $40 shipping/handling/ins
and yes...CAC will be more stringent. it could go either way 62 or 63. I'm not seeing anything on the coin that says the coin was circulated but grading by photo is always a challenge. based on the coins graded by PCGS I'm going to say CAC will place it an MS62 holder.
post an update when you get her back
