Collects82 Pillar of the Community United States 1316 Posts	Posted 10/28/2015 12:52 pm I'll take a shot at this for my own practice. I have a lot to learn about grading of uncirculated Morgans. Interesting toning on the reverse, love the golden rim on the obverse. I'll say 64, but I'm pretty stingy to offer anything 65 or over cause I'm kinda old school that way.

CartwheelCollector Valued Member United States 403 Posts	Posted 10/28/2015 5:26 pm 64 holder, 64 grade. Maybe a 5 if the luster is killer, but I think the reverse will keep it out of gem. Report this Post to the Staff
panzaldi Bedrock of the Community United States 18708 Posts	Posted 10/28/2015 8:14 pm I have it at 64 also. The reverse toning looks like it was in an album or holder that blocked light from the white portion. This does affect eye appeal and could knock it a point Report this Post to the Staff
paralyse Bedrock of the Community United States 12057 Posts	Posted 10/28/2015 10:27 pm MS63, reverse is mimicking tape toning and has a fingerprint. It is a MS64 technical coin but the strike is absolutely weak and to me that's a full grade point deduction.
