First post here!

What grade would you give this coin, and how much do you think it would be worth? Thanks!

I don't know how to grade Morgans, but the reverse looks like it was cleaned.

It appears to be cleaned and its also a common Philly mint coin. Probably around $20-$22 USD.

Yes, I think I can see hairlines on both sides, so probably cleaned, but it might be the lighting.

XF details, that being said I think it could fetch $30-$35. Over 12 million of these were minted, but estute collectors know under the Pittman act of 1917, 270 million Morgans were melted down. It's still a 19th century slice of Americana.

First off, welcome.

I don't see enough actual wear to take it down into the XF range, but the surfaces do rather look as if they've been cleaned, so I'll say AU details. Valuation depends a lot on your location and the currency in which you're quoting it - a $20 impaired coin in my region might be a $40 item in yours.
