Please grade this Morgan in a PCGS holder, and I will post the grade later tonight.

I could not believe the grade on this coin. This coin is listed for sale on ebay for $1137.50, and the coin is graded MS66 PL by PCGS. The CCF consensus grading is MS63 PL and that would put the value of this coin under $150. I would love to see this coin cracked out and resubmitted for grading, and I would put the over/under at MS63+ PL.

Here is the ebay link: 351531149991

MS63PL. The prooflike fields tend to look worse than they are.

The marks to Liberty's face and scuffs to her hair above the ear and also to the tip of the cap ought to limit this to MS63. The contrast between the devices and fields suggest it's at least semi-PL, but since a PL designation depends upon the clarity of the fields' reflectivity, well, there's just no way to teel about that from these photos, excellent though they are.

MS63. PL is always a possibility when the devices are this frosted.

If that coin is a 66PL two graders must've been totally drunk to grade it that high.....it is a good possibility the slab could be fake? I would stay away from this coin especially cause it's a common date,

The reverse carried the grade on this one. I'm not a fan of splitting the obverse and reverse grades and assigning an "overall grade" in this type of situation. For me a Morgan dollar can never grade higher than the obverse. Just a personal opinion and rule of thumb.
