There is a huge jump from AU55 to MS60. It might be worth a try to submit it.

This is a very rare coin in MS. Looks like a high AU and a chance at MS. Worth several thousand dollars for sure. Definitely send that in for grading.

I agree. Worth grading. Looks like AU58 or MS63 if no wear

1884-S is possibly the single rarest Morgan in Mint State - MS63 is a $40k coin. Value explodes above AU55. These pics are too small to be sure about an 1884-S. They're valuable enough to be faked in this grade and the mint mark sure looks way left. A couple VAMs for this year have left-set mint marks but I'd want to look a lot closer at that area before forming opinions.

I'd also want to see some much better photos before opining on this one.

I agree in that I'd definitely like better pics of this one before rendering an opinion... The mint mark does look abnormally far to the left...

This is an extremely rare date in MS.
Your coin is not MS IMO.
AU53 is where I'm at. There is obvious wear most prominently on the high points of the obverse.
Still, a tough date in AU.

Very nice coin. I'm at AU also with apparent wear on obverse.
