halfabustisbetter Pillar of the Community United States 1984 Posts	Posted 03/13/2008 10:55 pm My first thought was that it looks like an 1898-S. Grade-wise I'd say G-6. Edited by halfabustisbetter 03/13/2008 10:58 pm Report this Post to the Staff
KurtS Pillar of the Community United States 5318 Posts	Posted 03/13/2008 11:20 pm Hmmm...I'm not a Morgan collector, but there's something about that 3 in the date. Out of curiosity, I pulled the dates from three slabbed 1893-S Morgans on Heritage: I don't know how many "3" punches were used for 1893 but the upper curve of the 3 seems to curve to the midpoint at a different angle than your coin. I think my first concern is a modified 1898-S...dunno Report this Post to the Staff
