So legitimately, saying if it has been cleaned, what does that do the value? If it were an approved method like previously mentioned versus some amateur cleaning.

If the lustre is flashy I'd give it 64
(Why the duplicate thread?)

This one is for grading, the other was seeking information about counterfeit details.

I would give this a MS 64. I like my 1881 CC Morgans with flashy luster. I believe your coin may have taken a dipping long ago.

Those pics aren't good enough to accurately grade off. That said I agree and my suspicion is this is a details coin Quote:

It is defiantly a mint state coin. So whatever it is 60 to 64 the difference $500 to $600. I wouldn't give it a ms-65 which would bring it to the $1000 value. If the grading came back as cleaned it would definitely reduce buyers market, but you would still find a buyer. Although you will get bargained down because of the issue. Expect $100 to $200 loss if it comes back as cleaned.

I agree with the general consensus grade of MS64. A MS Morgan being dipped will not hurt the value provided the luster is acceptable. On your first set of photos on the.other thread, there is a difference in color around the stars than the field. The difference in color would give me consern that it may have been caused by cleaning. I am not seeing any cleaning hairlines in your photos, but you need to check for cleaning hairlines under light and magnification.

Honestly I am in the ballpark with the others via a m64 grade maybe a 65. I cannot tell the surface originality based on the current pictures. Better pics would greatly help determine this.

I still can't tell accurately from these pics. Try getting more light in your pics and don't take the picture at an angle.
Somewhere between 61 and 64.
