Typical weak strike, but I'm seeing circulation as much in the types of marks in the fields as on the devices. Maybe as low as AU55. Keep in mind, these are pricey in Mint State, one of the rarest Morgans to be found Uncirculated.

Nice lady!! A date/mm I'm missing still and finding one for my MS set within a reasonable price range is going to be super hard, as mentioned!
Ya I'd put this baby at AU-50 to 55.. Very nice indeed and a super good find, especially pulled from your bullion stack! You have reason to be stoked!

You'd better be prepared to call $1000 "reasonable" if you want even a baggy MS.  The multiplier between 64 and 65 (as if you could find one) is the single highest in the entire Morgan series. A 65 will set you back a six-digit number. I can only imagine what the sole MS67 DMPL(!) would fetch if it ever hit the market. This is one we believe was released into circulation to the tune of a couple million or so, and pretty much everything else got melted. |

I'll say it grades AU-53 but would not be surprised if it graded AU-55. Nice find from the bullion pile!
