Special "CCF Edition" SecureView, thanks to Photoshop.

Nice toned common date Morgan, 1881-S, not VAMmed, but it matches some of my other toned Morgans well.

This coin is very difficult to grade, because of the toning, so let's see what CCF thinks.

If this is the one I seen on ebay, then I already know the grade.

Nice looking morgan.

Yup, Cartwheel, it's probably that one, although there were quite a few. (Perhaps you're like me and like to hang out in the Morgans -> Ending Soonest search area.)

I honestly do not like this toning and I think PCGS would concur this coin's eye appeal is "above average" at best.
That being said, I think this coin has a technical grade (ie. details and bag-mark-free-ness) of 63 and a commensurate holistic grade.

The hit in the cheek kinda holds it back.

MS64 but 65 would not surprise me. Tough call with all the tone.
