Can we get a clear shot of the full obverse and reverse? I'm also very suspect. A number of spots look very soft and a bit mushy. The date being the biggest red flag. Tentatively siding with fake.

Morgan collector here! The NGC slab looks 100% athentic. It has all the telltale signs of being a real NGC product. The fakes are easy to spot if you know what to look for. If the holder is real and not tampered with, then the coin is 100% real.
I am confused about the first set of photos. The slab is real, but you first posted a set of photos showing a coin outside a slab. Do you have two 1894s?

Hey guys thanks for replying unfortunately this was bought off of ebay by me so it will Be going back if it is indeed fake which I thought it was. Luckily a 30 day return policy is what the seller has. Here are some pics of the obverse and reverse Thanks for all your help I know where I'm going now for all my questions.

Looking at mikev50 post on the die break on the talon area, my coin is missing that so it looks as though it's fake and I also weighed the coin again and it came back 26.97 oz with a coin that has some wear to it that should not be right. Thanks for the responses back

With only one die pair for business strike coins yours is a definite fake with the date position too far right. Not a coin to be purchasing from ebay raw if you don't know what to look for.

I'm sorry, but I'm 99% sure your coin's a counterfeit. Not to toot my own horn, but I'm pretty good at spotting fake Morgan dollars.

He is accepting the coin back go figure and said I'm sorry for your transaction I got the coin from a flea market and they said it was real yada yada. It will probably go back up in a month under a different name.
