Ok, so I did send this one in for PCGS grading and the results are in if anyone is interested.

First though a comparison in photographs. Last quarter was free secure at PCGS, so I got TrueView photos of the coin. Here's the obverse
1892-Morgan---Send-In-For-TPG?
and the reverse
1892-Morgan---Send-In-For-TPG?
with the PCGS TrueView photo next to my photo. I'm sure you can tell whose photo is whose

In hand, I was thinking that it might grade as a MS63, and, given my less than perfect photos, the consensus was it would grade as either 62 or 63.

The PCGS verdict was ...... MS62. You can view the cert if you so desire.

Thanks again to everyone who took a shot at the grade!

I think PCGS might have undergraded this one slightly. However, grading from photos is always difficult, and in hand grading is always more accurate.

But it's a nice coin. I like it.

I would have called it AU-58 based on the visible rub in the fields on both sides. The PCGS grade seems like a win for you!

MS-62 was generous. I agree with those at AU-58.

I would have liked to have seen this as an AU-58+

Thanks for the update.

It's always nice to know how a TPG graded. I do see it as 63 with new pictures.
