Please opine on the overall grade of this '84-S Morgan dollar. I also was a bit surprised at the radically different price point breaks when going from AU-50 up to MS-62... Please also comment on where one feels that this one falls into price-wise. It does display somewhat of a flattened cartwheel effect that is difficult to exactly portray with static photos etc.. thx   *** Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. *** |

Looks AU Details Cleaned from the pictures. Don't see any luster. May be the lighting. Nice cheek.
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."

In light of the above and acceptable observations would it reasonable to possibly expect that PCGS could still slab it as 'genuine', details-cleaned, & with an AU-50 grade which should bring a $ 205 Numismedia Wholesale NGC Bid on shown on http://www.ha.com? |

It may have been cleaned, but it may just be the lighting; I cannot tell which from those pictures. Other than that, I would think AU-53.

From what I see is a au50-55 coin that is cleaned. Yes the prices skyrockets in mint state cause they're very scarce. If you could maybe take pics with no flash and in natural lighting we can maybe see that it could be original and problem free. If you don't have much into it and are looking to have it graded then go for it if you are confident that it'll grade problem free.
