Its a VAM 3 as noted, also this one has the filled G found on some not all of this type..Another go! for the vam3 ID. and the marks inside and around the bow are the filing marks from the mint attempting to repair the area...doesn't look this it succeeded..its a commonly seen often on many Morgan coins, not date or mint mark specific.
That's a big money coin! I think

Wow! That's a nice 79-CC!
That coin is worth some serious dough!

If it were me, I'd send it to a top TPG for grading. There is a substantial $$$ difference between each of the MS grades on this one.

MS 64 to me. I agree on having it slabbed for protection as well as authenticity.
Rest in Peace

MS-64, have that submitted or store it very carefully if you're an experienced collector. How'd you get this?

Another beauty! This one should come in at least 63 from a TPG.

Absolutely gorgeous coin!
This is a coin that you should seriously consider slabbing. I think this would slab this coin as a MS-64.

Shadow - it is part of one of my previous posts on 10/9 -
CC Morgan set (minus 1) - I had just graduated from roll searching to type collecting. Was at a coin show in '62 @ Geauga Lake, OH - admired the look of the Morgans in the black Capital holder and my dad bought it for me. Don't remember the price. I am considering getting it graded but have no idea how to go about it or which TPG to use. I would want the VAM attribution. Looking forward to any and all suggestions.

Keep submitting it if you get below 64 IMO

I think I'd probably go with PCGS as well. It's potentially a $10K coin if you got it into a PCGS MS64 holder.

In my opinion, I think it has a great shot at MS64.

I agree, as the PCGS holder will yield the most resale value.
Still I would have a local dealer look at the coin to see if there are issues that may be of concern...I DO NOT see any, but just because its a cheap way to concur its a problem free coin before sending it in and the cost....Gorgeous coin..best of lick and let us know how you fare!

Do you think I should have a dealer submit it for me or send it in directly? Thanks for all the previous help. Does PCGS provide the VAM attribution? From my research this is a VAM top 100.

PCGS will attribute this VAM for an extra fee on top of what it costs to get it graded.
