First question should be if its even real. Key date and not slabbed= very dangerous

I see a cleaned Fine-12 here, assuming it's genuine of course.

Mintmark looks like the one I had recently, it does look cleaned, be wary on this coin. There are tons of fakes. Educate yourself on 89CCs

Fine, details, cleaned. Circulation wear is where it should be. I see no evidence of casting. A photo of the edge would be helpful. Also the weight. I'm not seeing anything that rang my alert bells, but this isn't a date/mm I'm terribly familiar with.

Have you bought it or are you considering buying it? Greysheet has a 89CC in F12 at $750. I wouldn't honestly pay more than $400 on it cause its cleaned, plus I'd get a guarantee from the seller that if you send it out to get graded and it isn't genuine then you should get a full refund. Always get guarantees in WRITING!
Just my opinion. Let us know.

Considering it is an 1889CC I would be glad to have it at that price. Being a raw coin concerns me. It is worn but I have seen VF coins that look worse. I guess I agree with the rating. A nice example of an F12 Morgan. Some look truly awful.

The C's in the mintmark look too elongated and the second one looks larger. The ones I've seen are pretty round in shape and really close to being the same size. But maybe just mishapen from circulation? What say you?

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."
