Hello all... I've been away for quite a while with some health issues. But I have still picking up a few coins here and there, and will be posting some of them. Here is a 1889 Morgan I picked up last week. Opinions?   |

Not the best pics. Maybe AU-55?

From these photos I am at 58, but the coin could be MS.

ms64. nice looking coin.
IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: " It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

MS 63 for me, cheek rash too distracting for 64.

Have you attributed it; VAM wise? John1  |

nice strike for an 89(P). many come in soft. shadowing, toning and lighting could be better
looks like a little of the luster is missing on the lower part of the face and neck areas. just scuffs there and I'm not seeing any scratches or marks that would knock it down a peg
nice golden toning if it looks the same in hand. nice eye appeal
i dont think this coin was circulated due to the clean fields. better photos would help. either a nice AU58 or MS64 and I'm with NS on this one and leaning MS64. would reassess if new pics are posted

A little hard to see the surfaces in these photos. Might be some rub on the obverse. AU-58-MS-64, hard to say.

Weird spot at 7 oclock in the field.
We need better pictures.
