Hey guys, this 1887 O Morgan looks pretty original to me, but the obverse looks AU and the reverse looks low MS. I was wondering what you guys think of this coin. Thank you.

I'm thinking AU on this one. High points look slightly worn.

IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS
THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: "It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

the 87(O) are known for weak strikes due to what was happening at the mint at that time. weakness can be seen on all NO minted dollars from 86 through 97.

with the others AU55

Thanks everyone for your input. This coin had terrible pics online and I was worried it would be a lot worse so 55 makes me happy
