I can't go any higher than MS62 on this coin.
Can't really tell from your photos if there is ample chatter in the fields. If so, MS61.

I don't think it's quite a 63. MS62.

Need to see larger images but I'm ready to believe the darker stuff on the cheek is the same as the darker stuff on the breast - just frost breaks. Keep that relationship in mind when you see this on Morgan reverses in an image, it's a characteristic distortion of reality rendered by digital imaging.
For that reason, I'd have no problem believing I'll see an MS63 in larger images, and I'm prepared to consider MS64. Chatter should show more prominently in this lighting.

I'm going to say MS62 solely based on the chatter on the cheeks, but I wouldn't be surprised if it was graded MS63. It's a close one.

If I'm reading the label correctly: MS 62.9 Yes, I scored an original CompuGrade slabbed Morgan!  was the give-away.

The eagle was quite nice, I would have said higher on the reverse but the obverse seems to be where most of the score comes from and I couldn't see as much detail in Lady Liberty's hair as I would have liked.

Hi, is there a VAM# for this coin for the polished hair? This is an 1885O. Is this worth anything more than regular? There is also a doubling line above the '5'  Edited by carlanga
