1880 S Morgan Grading Thanks

I'm not seeing any chatter other than die polish lines. is this what you are referring to or the couple little marks on the field by the right wing?

@Kopper Ken dont worry about it.

Is it worth grading these types of coins for future preservation and to try maintain the grade? I see my kids getting these and not knowing anything about coins will put their fingers over them, wear the surfaces down, rub them or turn into jewelry etc. Even the frosty appearances on some coins I could see them rubbing that off.

I've looked at this one for a little bit...question...what is going on from the outline of her forehead to the tip of her nose? The same outline occures on some of the left hand side leaves on the reverse? How about the mark by her eye...kind of looks like a die chip? This is only visable when zoomed in...
Could you post close-ups of those areas?

I second this, they are all solid reasons to slab.

If you have a few coins in a similar situation, ANACS is running a monthly special of 14 coins for $139+ shipping. I have taken advantage of their specials a couple times and have been more than content with the service. Like any submission to any TPG, one always hoped a couple got the next higher numerical grade, but I paid them for an opinion and they gave me an honest one.

I have kids at home, and someday hope to pass my collection on to them. For now, having some coins slabbed allows me to let them hold and appreciate daddy's favorite coins without daddy out. So to me, that $10-20 slabbing on many coins where I can now let them hold the coins is well worth it to me. Also, if one day the coins go to sale, the ease of sale and the higher $ received will find a way to pay for the overall slabbings. If I have spent $1K over the years on slabbing, I feel that even on these $75-150 coins in bulk, that they will net for more than $1K than they would have if left raw.

As a commodity, an 1880-S isn't an ultra rare coin that legends are written about in the form of newspaper headlines like an 1893-S or and 1804. But if this coins means something to you and makes you happy and is something that allows you to share a moment of joy with the kiddoes, then by all means, you do what you want to do with it.
