tolch123 Valued Member United States 116 Posts	Posted 11/20/2016 6:42 pm Hello Morgan Experts, I'm new to the Morgan game, and I'm hoping for some insight. I just bought this 1884-S, and I have a couple questions before sending it in with some of my large cents: Does the scratch under the obverse chin constitute a "Detail-Scratched"? Is it cleaned? Any ideas on grade? Thank you! Report this Post to the Staff

moxking Rest in Peace United States 17900 Posts	Posted 11/20/2016 7:26 pm Appears to be EF-Details, most certainly cleaned. As such it probably isn't worth sending to a TPG. An EF-45 with no problems slabbed sells for close to $100, or less. Report this Post to the Staff

A little less scrubbing and it may have been able to net grade it's way into a straight au50 slab but she's unfortunately been hit with a brillo pad Edited by Cascade 11/20/2016 7:30 pm Report this Post to the Staff

dave700x Rest in Peace United States 10625 Posts	Posted 11/20/2016 8:41 pm Definitely harshly cleaned. You may want to post some images of your Large Cents before sending them in. Most EAC guys don't care about what the TPG graders have to say anyways. They have their own grading standards. Report this Post to the Staff
