Your best/worst case grade for this Morgan dollar. Not a great pic I realise but it's going for pretty cheap so I'm willing to spend the money if the worst case grade is still ok. Thanks!   Edited by co1nz

The 85-O is pretty common up the mint state scale. This looks uncirculated but there are a few areas of concern, such as the eagles weird parrot head.
It's just tough to help you much with these photos.
Value stays pretty tight until the 64 to 65 jump.

63-ish. Perhaps with better pics it's a higher grade.

Am I going blind, or are these so out of focus that you really can't see what the surfaces actually look like?  |

The best takeaway here is, you have no idea from these images whether the coin is worth $40 or $400. It's going for cheap because nobody is willing to risk more than "cheap" on it. Among the most common of Morgans, even in high grade, it's really not worth your while.

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."
