I say 62, but a TPG would probably bump it to a 63 |

I am absolutely sure that this is an MS-63. Although it looks a little better.  |

It certainly looks a 63, but I think because of the excess bag marks on the focal point of of the obverse, at least PCGS would give it a 62.

I'm thinking most of the marks seen on the obverse are luster grazes and it would grade MS-63.

I'm in at 62...too many abrasions and hits to go higher.

Dave, you are correct, the coin has beautiful luster and coin in hand does not look as bad as my pictures shows. I should re-shoot it again to better illustrate it. Thinking of sending it out for grading. Worth doing? Thanks again... |

MS63 from me too, as Dave700x said only breaks in luster - not too bad in bagmarks. This example has pretty good luster so a solid MS63 to me as well.

Pretty decent 63, and looks to be a early state of the VAM-5 series. Probably a touch over a $200 coin in a slab.

I will go with MS-63+. The obverse looks 64. Most of the imperfections look like luster grazes. The reverse looks a little marked up for a morgan which usually have much nicer reverses than the obverse. That was why I went with the + instead of the next grade though I wouldn't be surprised if a TPG grades it a 64. |
