Morgan, I see a Peace dollar. Am I the only one?

I saw the thread title and thought, wow, a 1923 Morgan, now that would be a sight to see.

Beautiful strike, but no higher than 63-64.

It appears to have the luster of an MS coin but details on the eagle's head, shoulder, and the edge of the wing and leg look weak. Maybe it's just the focus but these areas look worn to me. If it does make the MS threshold the hits on the face and scruffiness in the fields should rule out any grade higher than maybe MS-63.

The 1923-S is a condition rarity, very expensive in true MS-65. This one isn't even close IMO. Based on these images I wouldn't consider paying anything over AU-58 money.
Rest in Peace

Yeah, sorry but this will not make an MS-65. I am thinking 62 tops. It is a nice coin though.

Nope, you're not! If you have a 1923 Morgan, you might be in big trouble!

Now as to the Peace dollar, 62 to 63. But, I don't see the luster some of the others have.

Just my humble opinion.

I think you are looking at MS-63 at most.

Those deep hits on the obverse are what are going to keep this gem from making that grade. That's too bad. She'll trade at MS63, IMHO.
