This one looks like it's a little easier to grade. I'm thinking this one is a VG-08, looks a little better than a G-06 and not as good as VG-10.

I'm still trying to convince myself that this coin is not a counterfeit.

There's a lot I don't like about the authenticity of this coin, but I'm on my smartphone and lack the time for an in-depth analysis.

Dave700x- why would you think this is a counterfeit?

I just does not have the right look to it. I am pretty convinced it's a fake. My only question is why fake a 1921 when you could fake one of the keys like the 1895 or the 1893-S?

The features in the center of the coin are very flat and the areas like the wing tips are that of an AU or better coin. Most of all the denticles are not right particularly on the reverse. Quote: why fake a 1921 when you could fake one of the keys like the 1895 or the 1893-S? It's become much easier to pass a fake common date Morgan than a key. I've seen many common date chinese fakes on ebay lately.

I like to know irs weight. Even in this condition it ought to be at least 26 grams. Its appearance of being well circulated does mitigate a bit against its being a fake.
