What are your thoughts on this 1898-S Morgan dollar? I think it would grade at about VF-20. The sellers asks $74 for it, which seems very steep to me.

VF seems about right. And that price is a bit high - keep looking.
Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures

the 98(S) are typically very well struck. with that being said
the hair detail/date/lettering & rim are saying VF30/35 as well as the reverse leaves. overall I think the coin is mid to high VF. the only area to point out are the cotton balls and grape leaves. when looking at the overall coin a grade of 35 would not surprise me but that would put the coin at $72 full retail. the coin is overpriced

I think VF20 is pretty spot on, could go up or down a grade depending on the grader. I do not see enough detail to go above VF25, and yes it's priced almost double what I'd pay for it.

VF-20 for me, a bit pricey

I like the circulation cameo, but I do not like the price.

It looks VF to me, and priced about double what I'd pay for it.

I agree with the VF grade.
