This is my 3rd actual graded Morgan. Need it for my Dansco, but can not bring my self to break open PCGS slabs. The faint scratch you see on her face is on coin not holder.   Does this lighting and new set-up make it easier to grade my coins? As usual any and all opinions welcome. Thanks...Mont. |

PCGS? MS-61/2
Id say MS-63. Nice coin.

Good shot at 64, but fingerprints detract.

You can still see a little bit of the cartwheel from the luster on the sides especially on reverse. Same pictures...just lightened.   These are more accurate to what coin looks like. Still doesn't show full luster. Sorry guys and gals I'm still playing with new set-up and software. 1st slabbed coin to go through it. Edited by MontCollector

I'm at MS64 if the cheek is as good as it appears in your photos.

PCGS said MS64. The toning is take it or leave it.

Looks like MS-64. The photos have great detail, but the luster isn't showing well. Maybe less light diffusion and more directional lighting?

I agree, break it out and put it in your album. once you have done that once it wont be as big a deal. I had the same thoughts when I wanted to crack my first one out. it belongs with the rest of your coins. someone mishandled this one a lot. there a fingerprints everywhere. maybe an acetone bath will help. good luck on your breakout.

Breast seems to have some wear so first thought is AU-58 but I suspect they let that slide and gave this one a 63 (or 64 ... just saw grade was already posted!)

I won this one on the bay. Cost $45.65/ free shipping I think the sellers very poor pictures (not from a coin dealer/collector) held it back. I trusted the PCGS slab to be at least what it was reading as, and as always I verified serial number before bidding. Ok so here it is.  I do believe it is a strong MS63 as I have seen much worse coins get this grade now a days. Wouldn't be too surprised if it did make MS64 if resubmitted though. Edit: Any Vammers out there looking at this, could you please tell me if the is a normal O or high O. To me it looks high and to the right, but not tilted. There however is not a 1900 O with mm position high and right(Not tilted) listed. I do know this is a near date, just need MM position to determine VAM. Edited by MontCollector

Seems like a reasonable market grade. I think they were on the fence about AU-58 v/ MS-63 and decided to give it the benefit of the doubt and net it out at 62.
