I revise my grade opinion to AU-58 as well.

It would be nice if everyone who thinks this is an AU coin would say where they think they see wear. I can look again at those areas to see if there is a break in the luster or not.

Like I said, this is a common date, so I don't intend on getting a TPG opinion

But, I do get a kick out of folks trying to grade these coins from photographs from amateur photographers like myself (and I do TRY and take good photos, but I've yet to take one of a Morgan that I'm really happy with)

From the images provided, I'd guess MS-63 with a shot at 64.

I should put together an album with the AU-58 (slider) coins that I paid BU money for. From your last photo this is what I see.

with the areas noted. although not heavily circulated there is sufficient rub to those areas to determine some circulation

Nope -- Not a single luster break to my eyes using 5x magnification. Like I said, grading from photos, even professional photos, is very tough to do
