Hard to grade coins of that quality from photos alone, but that does look over-graded. Very nice coin still!

Agree and agree. As nice a classic business strike Morgan as I've seen, but I do think the grading is high by one point. I'm not a fan of the toning, personally. Taking market grading into account, I'd be at 68+/* on this one.

Well struck attractive coin but too many contact marks for MS69 IMHO.

Holy Cow, look at the current bid!
There are so few MS69 Morgans out there.
Excellent specimen.

It is honestly shocking to me how much people will pay for a single point grade difference, knowing that grading is subjective and the differences can barely be perceived by the human eye.

Yes these prices are crazy.
There are more beatiful morgans in the auction for less money. But still expensive
