Jaobler Pillar of the Community United States 6392 Posts	Posted 03/04/2022 01:08 am Are we sure the mark by the stars is a scratch? It looks raised in the photo. If so then maybe it's a die gouge. The top of the 5 also appears to have a raised irregularity that might be from die damage. It's a beautiful coin otherwise with great eye appeal. If the mark is as-struck then MS-66 seems fair. Otherwise it could be net-graded to 63 or so, or be condemned to details status. Report this Post to the Staff
Ham1947 Pillar of the Community United States 1298 Posts	Posted 03/04/2022 08:05 am MS65 is my grade. PCGS grade might be MS64 Report this Post to the Staff

panzaldi Bedrock of the Community United States 18684 Posts	Posted 03/04/2022 09:24 am your 85(P) should be a little better with the strike. the breast is a little weak for the year. luster appears broken across the cheek. minor scuff and light marks across the profile and K4 area has a light scratch. nice peripheral toning however over the years expect it to darken considerably. reverse has nice luster and looks unbroken. the toning is pleasing adding to eye appeal MS64 if the luster across the cheek is not broken then MS65 westernsky - imo there is no way this coin detailed for those minor marks or the scratch. if it did then I to you for your assessment Report this Post to the Staff

Slider23 Pillar of the Community United States 4469 Posts	Posted 03/04/2022 11:32 am I am at 64. My guess PCGS puts the coin at AU58 given the scratch, and hit on the 5. The coin may have gone through a coin counter. I remember seeing a 1878 CC Morgan at a Lake Tahoe Casino in 1969 that was so beat up from the $1 slots that I did not keep the coin.

TobyJ Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 1273 Posts	Posted 03/04/2022 2:23 pm Unsure what they graded it. I've studied it for a while and don't think it is any lower than MS65. 64s tend to have more scratches, NGC would probably grade this MS65+ . Got my popcorn ready for the reveal that is going to perturb us all. Report this Post to the Staff
Pacificoin Pillar of the Community Canada 5396 Posts	Posted 03/04/2022 2:52 pm 65+ is my guess . The obverse focal area is sharp and devoid of marks . Coin has an attractive original appearance . The mark at the Stars obverse 4 to 5 o'clock detracts only slightly . In hand I am sure this looks even nicer . Edited by Pacificoin 03/04/2022 2:52 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Finn70 Valued Member United States 247 Posts	Posted 03/04/2022 3:02 pm I will guess 64+. Some obverse and reverse marks, makes this one just below a gem. A nice eye appealing coin! Report this Post to the Staff

collector.detector Pillar of the Community United States 505 Posts	Posted 03/04/2022 4:15 pm MS-64 +. Good eye appeal for strike but some marks that doesn't allow a 65. Report this Post to the Staff
