Hey all,

Literally just got this in the mail 5 minutes ago! I'm so excited, it's in an older green PCGS holder, so I'm hoping maybe, just maybe, it's graded wrong (in my favor).

I'm getting pretty good at taking pics, but taking pics with the coin in a case is newer to me, so be nice! I can seem to get a straight shot and I can seem to get even lighting but I can't seem to get both at the same time

Flat Shots(uneven lighting)

1887-P-Morgan-Dollar:-New-Acquisition:-Can-You-Guess-The-Grade?
1887-P-Morgan-Dollar:-New-Acquisition:-Can-You-Guess-The-Grade?

Angled Shots (even lighting)

1887-P-Morgan-Dollar:-New-Acquisition:-Can-You-Guess-The-Grade?
1887-P-Morgan-Dollar:-New-Acquisition:-Can-You-Guess-The-Grade?

Will post the actual grade tomorrow afternoon, good luck w/ your guesses!

Thanks,
CoinAdvocate

Hard to see through that toning from pictures. I will take a stab with MS-65

I'm not a fan of the splotchy toning. With the scratches on the obverse I wouldn't go higher than MS64

Seems like a lot of facial marks for an MS-64.

64 is the correct grade on this one. eye appeal lower end. marks across cheek and left obv field would keep it out of 65 box
