First of all this is not mine yet but I am thinking of buying it. Coin is in GSA holder and pictures are seller photos. I've been thinking of buying CC Morgan dollar for awhile and after long time browsing I found one that looks nice in my eyes and price seems fair. But before buying it I thought of asking your opinion about this coin. How would you grade it and do you see any problems? Thank you.   |

MS 63 - semi prooflike. It should be a very attractive coin.

64
IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: " It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

63. On the obverse is the rim slightly damaged (upper left area) or is that just the glare in the photo?

Buy it, but pay no more than $200. I sold one nicer for $200.

Nice MS63, semi PL reverse, with minor dings above eagle's head.

It's a solid 63 with nothing particularly disparaging. Won't make PL but does have some deviation. Decent full luster. I like it.

Might make MS-64, looks problem-free, very attractive. Looks like a dashed 8, maybe a VAM-5?

I would say MS63. Just saw one in a PCGS MS63 holder go at auction this morning, it didn't look as nice as this and went for $225 US, plus BP.
Just for reference.
