Any chance we could get a shot with more light on those obverse fields?

When she shows up, I will try to get better photos. But, it's in a slab and I've had mixed success photographing coffin coins. Thanks for looking, Mr. Frog.

Clean fields, but some chatter on the cheek. MS-64, possible 65

Is that debris next to the eagle's right wing inside the "coffin"?

I hope not. Will find out when she shows up.

Edit: will reveal grade after a spell.

Nice —- PCGS liked it enough to throw a + on it, too! That rainbow toning on the reverse really helped!

Great pickup!

Can someone comment on the black marks in the hair and wings? I see them in ebay postings on shiny Morgans - Newbie

Those are just contact marks that appear black because they are reflecting to the camera differently.
