Checked in with an out of the way pawn shop I hadn't been to for some time. He had just this one Morgan, common date, with a toning pattern that leads me to suspect an old cleaning. Still, for a whopping $12.75, I'd have bought quite a few more if he'd had them to sell. Certainly I need to be going there more often as he's telling me this is his typical premium over melt.

Yes, definitely an old cleaning somewhere along the line, but for $12.75 who cares! Nice pickup!

Great price and really quite a nice looking coin. Only thing that gives away a cleaning is the pattern of toning.

So....

F15 or VF20 (with a "details" annotation in either case), then?

VF-25 details, but a smoking deal for 12.75.

No brainer for $12.75 any day! I'd give that guy a call every now and then asking him if has anymore.

VF details since the eagle seems to lack any breast detail left.

For less than $15 I would be sure he had my phone number on speed dial
