ebay is always a crap shoot when it comes to ungraded coins, and that's all I buy. I've been fooled before from the pictures in the listings, and surprised just as often. This one was a nice surprise because the coin is better than the ebay photos the seller provided. This Morgan won in an auction only last week.

These first two pictures are the ones I just took, and the last two are the ones in the sellers listing.

So what do you think it's grade might be?

And these next two pictures are from the sellers ebay listing.

average strike for an 85(O). eye appeal AVG-. luster still on the surfaces subdued by the toning. overall i'd net it out at AU55

Nice reverse but obverse holds it back. AU55 sounds about right.
