While I'm not a Morgan guy, I like the idea of having examples from interesting sources. I have a GSA, and now I have a Redfield. What would you grade it, and if you're a VAM person, and can tell me what VAM, that would be awesome.   |

With the hits and chatter on the cheek I'll say MS63 - Just a guess but did Redfield grade it 65?

Paramount Int'l Coin Corp put this in as MS-60 holder. They put the 65's in a red holder, and the 60's in a black.

Might be MS-61 by today's standards.

62+ with nice luster
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."

Lovely peripheral tone. No hint of cleaning or dipping. 61 at today's grading standard.

Most of the Redfield Paramount "MS 60" holdered coins were slider AU's and I think this one is as well; AU58. Attractive rainbow toning peripherally which is also fairly common on Redfield coins.
