You Vs. PCGS On This 1880-S Morgan (Answer Posted Page 2)

MS-67!

From my phone, 66+. Nice coin.

ok, now on to the results. Westcoin should have stuck with his initial guess. This is a PCGS graded MS-68 CAC approved.

I have to be honest now, I don't actually own this coin but found it on Harlan J. Berk's website. He's a dealer here in Chicago. I thought the coin was an awesome piece but a little surprised at the grade due to the same reasons everyone else stated.

My guess is that coin in hand will look a lot better. I may have to stop in just to take a look.

Here's a link to the actual coin http://www.hjbltd.com/unitedstatesc...ce&linenum=8.

I did and called CAC approval if it had been submitted to them, bottom of my post edited before you posted grade. I said MS68 w/CAC! Not that I am always right though, I miss my fair share of them too.

I'm not at all surprised by the grade, probably a technical MS67+ but the color kicks it up another point, and so eye appealing that CAC thought enough to give it a green bean.

Don't see many Morgans quite this beautiful. For everyone out there on ebay land calling their dollars superb and original, I point them to a coin like this, and 99.9% of the time the coin in question would fall down when placed next to a monster like this 1880-S.
