Id like to buy this coin, is ms63 a correct assessment? I see nice luster, but also suspect it has been dipped sometime As always looking foward to your help, been a while since I purchased a Morgan   Edited by Moniker

Looks overdipped to me. I would pass. When coins are dipped too much they have this washed out lack of luster look. This one to me has that look.

If you can get it for a good price go for it. But it should be discounted due to stain by 5th star and perhaps being dipped.

Sorry, not seeing any luster in these pics. Perhaps try different lighting?.

I agree it looks overdipped with very muted luster. It's a common date, and if it's a details coin, it's value is not much more than a circulated Morgan.

An over dipped Morgan dollar. I'll say MS-63 on the grade. Glad you passed on it. Errers and Varietys.

she has been overdipped. there's fine line between cleaning up a coin and moving into the details designation box. lighting/glare can enhance what if any luster remains and I think thats what we are seeing here. there are so many really nice 80(s) out there you don't need to buy sub-par examples of it.

I think it will straight grade MS-63.

i think the pics is taken in daylight I see not direct light. The seller is not a collector so its inherited coins. The back looks to have a satiny look or something |

Dip job, might straight grade but it's a poor quality example of a date that is easily available in very high grades
Might also be some rim issues
