I think I may be starting to get the hang of digital photography so if you would please grade this Morgan. I bought this about 13 years ago for $5. It's in a 2X2 and I assigned a grade to it back then, let's see what you guys think.

The reverse looks UNC. I am assuming the breast feathers are due to a weak strike.

The obverse appears AU.

When these Morgans start straddling the MS/AU fence I have a hard time grading them.

I will say AU55-58.

AU50-55

EDIT: Looks like your pics are coming along! Much better if you take it out of the 2x2. Also, a bit larger in pixel size helps.

Thanks for your opinins, I graded it AU-50 back then. That grade is still on the 2X2 and I put a price of $8.25 on it back then, was going to try and make a $3.25 profit.

Check the coin for Infrequent reeding,if it has Infre. reeding it is a top 100 coin. Not sure of the premium they carry yet, have to do some auction searching, but I know I paid $18 for an AU yesterday (cherry picked at the B&M), so your profit is rising !
