Hi Guys, picked up this 1884 S Morgan which I think is a solid XF45 but does it really stand a chance at AU50? Please let me know your thoughts. Cheers!

The coin was clearly in circulation. I don't like the roughness and scratches all over the field. I don't think she even got an AU-50.

From these photos, I don't believe your Morgan would quite make AU. In addition, it may garner a details grade for a past cleaning. There is a pretty big bump in price for this year/MM when you get to AU, but I think the condition of the coin would negate that to some extent.

In any case, this is a particular Morgan that I don't have in my collection. Enjoy the chase!

Might make AU-40, but appears cleaned.

this coin is way to clean for a circulated example at this grade. I'm in the AU details (cleaned) box as well

Sorry to say I see an XF details coin that no longer has original surfaces.

Obviously cleaned.
