Imthealphaomega Pillar of the Community United States 3210 Posts	Posted 11/23/2016 11:28 am Got these along with like 68 more Morgan's from my cousin. Selling all of them except these two. Wanted to know what you thought, First is a 1878 8TF PCGS ms63. I feel it is undergraded and could be a 64 which is worth double than what it is now. Second is a 1883 Morgan. I feel it is a solid proof like or a dmpl. Wanted to get thoughts before I consider sending it in. Report this Post to the Staff

Dustin6 Pillar of the Community United States 3516 Posts	Posted 11/23/2016 12:04 pm I think it would be tough to get a 64, If resubmitted it might get a 63+, but It would be a stretch to get a 4, I'd keep it where it is. On the 83, It has a 64/65 reverse, but the obverse is a 63 IMO, I'd say a net 63, possibly PL Report this Post to the Staff

GR58 Bedrock of the Community United States 11951 Posts	Posted 11/23/2016 6:29 pm Tough call ... The first one is very close ..either MS 63 or 64. Hard to tell for a coin like this .. from pictures. I would set it to the side, and compare it with a known 64 .. in a week or two ... sometimes that works for me when I am picking Morgan's to send in. The second coin... PL Morgan's ..I have a lot of trouble taking good pictures of. For me it is very hard to get mirror surfaces to come out .. like they look in hand. From these pictures .. I am not seeing PL Report this Post to the Staff
paralyse Bedrock of the Community United States 12057 Posts	Posted 11/23/2016 8:26 pm First one is 63 held back from 64 by the reverse spot between right wing and left wreath. On a good day it might pull a 64, if you get lucky. Some chatter in left obverse field but overall the eye appeal is pleasant. Second one, MS63, PL reverse, obverse is semi PL. An attractive example of a slightly tougher date, well struck and with original toning. I would like to see a bit more cameo contrast and mirroring on the obverse to make a full PL designation, but the reverse is solid. This coin would sell well in a slab due to the strong eye appeal.
