newbie6 New Member United States 6 Posts	Posted 09/02/2019 6:53 pm Just inherited a collection and found this coin. My beginner's research leads me to believe that this is a VF-30 based on the level of wear on the hair. Would love other opinions and if anyone has an idea of the value, that would be helpful. Thanks Report this Post to the Staff

newbie6 New Member United States 6 Posts	Posted 09/02/2019 9:06 pm Thank you ! I know there are a large number of counterfeit Morgan dollars. Any way to know if this is a fake? Report this Post to the Staff

It's cheaper to send it to them than to PCGS or NGC. If it comes back as real, you could consider cracking it out and sending to one of the other services. Report this Post to the Staff

Id say around XF somewhere but mostly because I don't like the eye appeal. Two things are concerning to me: one the copper color in-between the leaves the eagle holds and Lady Liberty's droopy eye. It should weight 26.73 grams and not be magnetic. Report this Post to the Staff
panzaldi Bedrock of the Community United States 18657 Posts	Posted 09/03/2019 10:35 am AU50. a little low on the eye appeal side though. definitely worth grading Report this Post to the Staff
IndianGoldEagle Bedrock of the Community United States 36724 Posts	Posted 09/03/2019 11:22 am I agree, AU-50 but poor eye appeal. Report this Post to the Staff
Zurie Pillar of the Community United States 5666 Posts	Posted 09/03/2019 11:29 am I'd say XF-45, possibly some mild environmental damage. Looks genuine, the date and MM are a match with VAM-2. If you send it in for grading, it might be worth getting conservation services. Report this Post to the Staff
