Steven49 Valued Member United States 66 Posts	Posted Yesterday 5:42 pm * Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. * My latest purchase is this 1891 Morgan Carson City Silver dollar. It was graded as a MS-61 from PCGS. It is a "spitting eagle" variety. . I have was always told to purchase the coin , not the label. In this case, I believe it could have gotten a higher grade. Liberty's face shows very little contact marks. What do you think? 'nt Report this Post to the Staff

1910S_1C Valued Member United States 51 Posts	Posted Yesterday 10:41 pm Is it possible the coin has a minor problem which led the grading service to net it down? It looks like it could pass in a 64 holder, so I am left to wonder if the coin's strong eye appeal saved it from getting a details grade. All that being said, I don't see any problems at first glance. Report this Post to the Staff
adam126402 Pillar of the Community United States 886 Posts	Posted Yesterday 11:32 pm I see a lot of marks in the obverse fields and in the 3rd photo reveals many more hits on the jaw and cheek. They all look minor, but a lot of them. I don't see this beyond 62. Report this Post to the Staff
