That's a current generation label and yeah, ANACS is conservative to spot on when grading Morgan dollars. |

The carbon spots should come off during conservation but it may impact the remaining luster.
If they are left on the coin they will most likely get bigger and darker.
I'd get them removed.
Good luck!

Decided to have some fun and pull the trigger. This one has been cracked out and sent to NCS/NGC for conservation and grading (along with some other coins for grading). Really curious if NCS will be able to do anything for it. Will post results here when it come back, probably months from now.

ANACS is a bit conservative. Probably 62 in a modern NGC or PCGS holder.

NGC Conserved this coin and it came back as a MS-62. Couldn't be happier (unless they had put the coin in a bit straighter). These are NGC's photos.   |

Nice job. ANACS does a nice job with conservation too but you are ahead with the grade upgrade.

congrats  IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: " It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

May I ask, what that cost? |

4% of coins value to conserve, $25 minimum. So, $25, plus Standard tier grading, $40. Shipping and processing fees were divided up between a bunch of other coins. So roughly $70
