I recon it is rubbish and you should send it to me  Seriously tho to my untrained eye it looks genuine and in Aussie grading would get a G grading. I'm a bit concerned however about the clear " Liberty" when the rest of the coin is sooo worn, any explanation for that  |

Full Liberty is found on nearly all grades of this coin. It looks genuine from the photos, but considering that this is a key date, a close examination by an expert is needed. Assuming it is real, I would grade it as a G6. The obverse could go VG8, but the reverse is more of a G4 so I netted it out at G6.

Looks authentic and original condition. G-6 condition due to thinning rims. Very nice coin. nlp

To grade it better, you need to mail it to me. I would make sure you got pictures back.

I did some checking on VAM World & all the diagnostics are there. So, I'm off to the dealers for their opinions. Well, I just came back from 2 local dealers. Both said that is no doubt genuine. They also said that the Grey sheets has it listed $1500-$1800 I didn't even pay close to that.  Sometimes I like ebay. |

First I want to THANK EVERYONE for their opinions.   THANK YOU EVEVERYONE I have been quite excited ever since I left the Dealers.  I couldn't even wait for Lisa to get home to tell her the news, I called after I left each shop.  The excitement of picking up a major key date is really something. What I really like is the it's the lowest mintage of all Morgans & the highest priced in any grade.  THANKS AGAIN!  Edited by chris12018

I've had my 1893-S since 1968 and I will never get it slabbed. I just keep it in a cardboard/mylar stapled 2x2 so I can take it out and look at it once in awhile. It's my favorite coin that I own.
