Hello. New to the forum. My first post. I have been collecting Morgans for about a year. Totally lost my mind over them. Collected them as a kid and have refound my love for collecting. Anyway, I have a few graded Morgans that may be undergraded. Hoping for a few opinions. Thanks so much.

Hard to tell for sure from these photos. Can you get a better shot of the obverse with more lighting?

Morgans can be quite addicting, yes, very.

Let's see if this is any better. Still trying to figure out how to get best pictures of coins. The eye appeal is much better in hand. Great rainbow tone on the rim.

I'll go MS-62 based on these photos. Nice looking Morgan.

On the first photo, I was thinking MS 65. On the second photo, the grade appears to be correct as there are some marks on the cheek. On PCGS the grade is in the cert number. Based on photos, I would not recommend cracking out.

Easy MS-64 and possibly a 65 on a regrade.

I think this one is graded fairly at MS-64. The subtle obverse toning really adds to the eye appeal.

Making a mess of my first thread. Tried better lighting. As sharp as I think I can get with what I'm working with. Thanks for looking.

I think 64 hits it on the money.

Thanks for everyone's opinions. Will probably keep it where it is. Only OGH I have and sounds like an upgrade is unlikely. And thank you for the hospitality to a new member!

I say 64. So what's the grade?

You can see the grade in the second photo of the obverse. "7184.64/23777..." the .64 represents the grade and thus we know the coin is graded MS64.

It seems accurate from your images.
