So I know both are not "worth" sending in. However, these are from my mom and I sent some of the most toned ones a few months ago (posted a few on here) and they were mostly MS 62 and MS 63.

This one represents an average from the group I want to send in. However, I probably won't send any if you don't think they would be at least MS 62 or MS 63.

To me, the ones I picked out look just as good, however, it is a bit hard for me to compare because of the toning on the others.

Finally, I have the 1879 shown here on the do not send as I think it probably would be like AU 53. However, I like the toning and would send AU 55 or higher.

I didn't include the backs, but they are very similar and realize you are just making a guess based on the front.


Thanks in advance -

I love the toning on the 1879

Are you aware that ANACS has a grading special going on? They do grade Morgans VERY well (IMHO!!).

10 coin, max $500 value per coin, for $115 - includes return shipping. 30 max coin limit.

Nice Morgans, by the way!

The first one looks possibly cleaned. The second looks MS62-MS63. Better images would be nneeded to be more certain though.

Thanks for asking for a better picture. I have taken a better picture of the front.

Thanks, the picture makes it look worse when I compare it to my MS 63s. However, I certainly recognize you probably know where it would grade.

I have others that I hope to send in that are in better condition, but this one probably was the most unique luster.

MorganGrader......You are CRAZY...

Good!

The 88 came back from NGC as MS 62 and the toned 1879 came back as MS 64.

Thanks so much for the help. I can't believe how good many of you are at this, even with crumby pictures.
