Lets play another round of: "Did I Pay Too Much"
I just picked up this 1896 New Orleans Morgan dollar, and I want to see what grade/price you think it is. After a few grades, I will reveal the price I paid......
....LET THE FUN BEGIN!

Can't tell much from those pictures.

Until better pictures are posted I will withhold judgement.

Can you get a pic of the reverse like that? I don't think it's counterfeit.

I also had an inkling that this might have been the case. The date looks kind of suspect, but it's still within the realm of plausibility. Here's a picture of a genuine example I found on PCGS CoinFacts, with a similarly shaped date.

I agree, I don't think it's a counterfeit. I'd like the OP to post photos of the reverse.

sorry for the bother...even with the coin image optimizer, it says the file is too big. I'll take it in just in case.( 282890223339
I think this is the right # from ebay....it's the item number.
Thanks for everything
