Hey guys my local pawn always gets in tons of Morgans from time to time. I bought two NGC graded Morgans while back MS 62 for $20 a piece. Since then absolutely nothing until now!! They had these priced at $25 a piece I offered $24 and bought this one! 1902 S! Wowow my most expensive coin in my collection and most expensive coin find of all time! Now the coin store I brought it to said they'd grade it at an AU 50 but they were hesitant because they thought the S looked "weird"? They eventually came to conclusion it is real, no evidence or any signs of adding a mint mark. As for the grade do you guys agree with AU 50? I personally maybe down one grade but not sure on that. I plan on having this graded for sure. Thoughts?

Looks legit to me and a very nice pickup.

As the way it looks now, I'd say it is in the AU50/53 range.

With the spot in front of Miss Liberty's snozzola, along with what may be some PVC residue, it may be a candidate for some professional conservation efforts.

Very nice coin whatever you do with it!

Very nice find! AU-50 seems about right. Is that a small divot on the neck, or just a mark?

You probably spend more getting it graded by a TPG than you paid for it.
Don't forget the cost of S&H.
