Just an 1888 Morgan dollar for your thoughts. PCGS "Rattler" holder. Nice looking coin to me.    Member ANA - EAC - TNA - SSDC - CCT #890 "Most of the things worth doing in the world had been declared impossible before they were done." -- Louis D. Brandeis |

I'm going to say MS64 in an old rattler. Are the dark spots on the upper cheek contact marks or just breaks in the frost? Lighting can be brutal on the latter. Was this a show pick?

MS-64 is most likely in a rattler. Might tick a grade up now. In any case, a nice specimen.

The reverse is really nice. I'd go MS-64.

Not one of the show purchases. (I posted those in the Purchases thread on classic coins forum)

I agree with 64, but years ago PCGS decided on 63. Not enough of a premium for a crackout, but nice to look at.  Member ANA - EAC - TNA - SSDC - CCT #890 "Most of the things worth doing in the world had been declared impossible before they were done." -- Louis D. Brandeis |
