I have four common date Morgan's that aren't important VAMs (from my research) some have better mirroring than others. Not sure what to do with these. Tube? Capsule?

This 82 is typical of these four...

i agree with coinfrog. would like to know if the luster is full or broken. try eliminating overhead lighting to remove the glare. it will also help see the toning better. can't give a good guess on grade as it could be anywhere between MS63 and MS66 but as coinfrog said, it looks promising

Lots of glare. At least MS-64 I think

Here's two more.... The luster is full and it's the most mirrored Morgan I've handled, but the luster is thinner on the 81 s than on the 82 s.

Just not sure this one is a Deep Mirror from these photos. Could be Semi-PL.
