Any grade thoughts would be appreciated and is TPG worth it?

It's a cleaned, common date mid AU Morgan dollar and not worth a TPG submission in my opinion.

Mid AU and not worth the grading fees.

Note the fine parallel abrasions on both sides, which are the hallmarks of an abrasive cleaning. Detail is about mid-AU; even with original surfaces a common-date Morgan like this would not be worth having graded.

Still a perfectly nice coin to add to a silver stash!

AU details, lightly cleaned. Not worth submitting.

Note it's still an attractive coin, though. People would kill for this if it were an 1893-S.

Unfortunately, it's not an 1893-s. I'm curious as to how you differentiate scratches on cleaned coins and scratches from other coin-to-coin contact.
