So I ran by one of the pawn shops I buy from on my way to an appointment. He had two morgans. One of them looked shiny and given the other coins I've purchased off of him I assumed it was polished. I paid $17 for each and rushed out. Well I just got back home, and the 79 has full cartwheel luster and looks like an ms coin and is semi-proof like.

Thoughts?

Nope, it's polished. Not MS at all.

Neither looks natural to my eye, but larger pics would help a lot.
