I don't see the point of slabbing this if it doesn't have a shot at MS66. What do you guys think? I can't see any big marks on it, two bagmarks on the eagle, and one just below P IN PLURIBUS.   [ |

MS 65 because of soft strike on reverse, and there appears also to be a planchet flaw or some other mark on cheek.

Agree that it is MS65 at best due the weak strike and planchet flaw being in such a primary focal point, but given the enormosity of the flaw, I could see it being market graded down to MS64 or MS64+.

okay, then it'll stay put here in Norway. Thanks. How about this one? Shooting at 67, or is that far out?   Loads of satin luster, with light gentle toning. Edited by aleroe

High-point friction on both sides would limit that one to 65+ imho. Nice coin otherwise, and maybe if the luster is really booming, it could sneak into a 66 holder.
Great photos by the way.

MS-64 on the 86, MS-66 on the 98.

Very nice 1898 with solid fields, strike and some light gold toning. I am at MS65 with a shot at MS 66. This coin is worth sending in for grading.

64 on the first, 66 on the second with a decent shot at 67. Super example!

I think the 98 is MS66. Just short of 67. But a really nice piece

98 is a MS66, subtract some contact marks on the cheek and you'd have a 67 coin.

Thanks guys! I'll send the 1898 and a couple of other MS65/66's. I'll keep you posted when I get them back ;)

98 is 65 IMHO.
I've sent many of these clean like this to PCGS.
Who knows with these new graders.

Fields are relatively clean but too many marks on the face I would be at ms64 maybe a slight chance for 65

That '96 is a really nice one, good shot at a 66. 65+ except on Fridays, then it is a 66. Lock 65, though, at the very least. You have got some really nice Morgans.
I would buy coins like that for 64 money all day, every day.

Did you get those in the U.S, or is there a decent market for Morgans in Norway?
