What say you? Two very different looking Morgans of the same date and mint mark. One is NGC (White) and the toned one is in a PCGS holder. One of them is a CAC approved "green bean" sticker coin First the NGC coin:   Now the PCGS coin:   I will post the grades late Sunday evening/early Monday morning - So get your loupes out and start your guesses! I think you may be surprised by the results when I post them.  "Buy the Book Before You Buy the Coin" - Aaron R. Feldman - "And read it" - Me 2013!

I think both could be MS66 with the PCGS coin being slightly better from a technical standpoint.

I agree they could both be 66 but at least pq 65. I think its a great 2 coin set one toned and one white.

The first Morgan is MS66 for me.
The second one, well, it depends what that line to the left of the nose is, but could also make MS66 if it's on the holder.

I think 66 for NGC and 65+ for PCGS. That is a wonderful set, I can't wait to see what TPG grades these were given!

I don't think the first one beans at 65, but I have it as the CAC coin at 64. The toner is a 65, and it's quite frankly degraded for poor eye appeal. That is some displeasing toning. However, if it's the bean coin at 65 I wouldn't really be shocked. Which means somebody will throw money at you for it, westcoin.

I'm say the first is 64 with the CAC bean, and 65 for the toner
