I think this is a VAM-6A, but that's for discussion in the VAM subforum; so for here, how does CCF grade this 1897-O Morgan dollar? I plan on an acetone bath when it gets here. Seller pictures.

IndianGoldEagle Bedrock of the Community United States 36777 Posts	Posted 04/02/2016 2:50 pm Typical weak strike for this date and mint, got to go EF-45 on this one. Report this Post to the Staff

Still the faintest remaining mint luster towards the edges. Almost to a 6A but not quite there, borderline... You can tell by the "drunken date" that the 1897 New Orleans production team was pretty tired of producing millions of Morgans that were destined to sit in bags...
