Five days ago I was asking for opinions with the Morgan that I saw on ebay, and I wound up winning the coin for my one bid of $34.50 that day, and said that I would post an update when I got it. Well I got it this morning so here it is .......... first the original post.

And now for my own pictures that aren't fuzzy like in the listing. A bit more cheek and field scuffing than I hoped for, but nothing is deep and no more than bag marks, still not a bad Morgan. I like that little bit of edge toning obverse and reverse.

Good price. I'd say MS-62, possibly 63. Nice luster, but the cheek abrasions look fairly deep.

the 99(O) are known for sharp bold strikes. this one would fall just short of that due to the breast and the fingerprint is a bummer as its so prominent and the eye is drawn straight to that. this will affect value imo. I think the reverse is in the 65 range but the obverse issues and hits across the cheek are going to drop this one to MS63

Great luster and eye appeal. The deep facial marks will hold it to a high end MS-63.

Nice luster, but I still think no better than MS-63 due to the cheek marks and fingerprint.

I stand by my 64 opinion. It's got a lot of eye appeal IMO. lets just say ive certainly seen worse coins in 64 TPG holders.
