OK, I'm a real novice on Grading Morgans cause of the weak strikes and such that play a role. I bought this bad boy from a lady who just had it laying around in a desk drawer at her work. I am thinking MS but the tone and strike is throwing me off. What do you think?

yep, AU58. color comes from how this was stored probably obverse up and exposed to moisture and light more than the reverse.

Thanks everyone. years of sliding around in a desk drawer made its mark on this coin. AU-58 it is. I got it for the price of silver at the time ($14!) and it is a beautiful coin.
