Just had to share this Morgan that, improbable as it may seem, was certified by PCGS.   Can you discern the reason it was gradeable? Colligo ergo sum

Can't put anything over on the sharpies here. Yes, the faint outline of 8 tailfeathers allowed for it to be positively identified as an 1878 Philadelphia.  Likely the most fabulously low of all Morgan lowballs. Colligo ergo sum

Nice one. The most worn coin I've seen that could be positively identified.

The only coin more worn than this that could get slabbed would probably be an 1890-CC Tailbar or something.

I have it at NEG08. That's a new grade for less than 1.  |

The grade I'd invent would be SP-00, for "semi-planchet zero"....
