KurtS Pillar of the Community United States 5318 Posts	Posted 12/16/2007 12:14 pm I find that MS coins are hard to differentiate, but I'll give it a guess--MS64? Report this Post to the Staff

Bryan1315 Bedrock of the Community United States 14454 Posts	Posted 12/16/2007 12:28 pm it looks like there is some wear in the hair of Liberty so I will say AU-55. I am not familiar with this date as far as weak strikes but if they are known for a weak strike I reserve the right to change my opinion accordingly but that being said usually P minted Morgans are pretty strongly struck Report this Post to the Staff

hadleydog Pillar of the Community Canada 1267 Posts	Posted 12/17/2007 2:11 pm From the picture provided there appears to be some wear in the hair, I would go au-55. Report this Post to the Staff

hadleydog Pillar of the Community Canada 1267 Posts	Posted 12/17/2007 2:39 pm Amac44, thanks for posting such a challenging coin to grade. First impressions lent a grade of ms63/4, but after looking at the high points a couple of times I am not convinced it did not see some very light circulation. Without it in hand, I certainly would not be surprised if it graded low ms or indeed is a slider with the look of an ms coin. Report this Post to the Staff

Of the half-dozen I viewed, they have similar weakness of detail in those areas. Could be an MS coin. Edited by KurtS 12/17/2007 3:26 pm Report this Post to the Staff
