$67. #18 of 40 acquired recently. Recently I purchased 40 slabbed Morgan dollars (36 ANACS, 3 PCGS and 1 ICG) and will post one a day alongside one Peace dollar. I paid an average of $67 for the 40 coins. This time I will post the grade of the coin 2 days after and this time we can compare our grades with those of TPGs. Thoughts? Thanks!

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 MS-62 grade says something about how little pull the reverse has on the grade. I can see MS-62 here because of the heaviest cheek hit and the length of the scratch in the NW obverse field, but I agree, this one would be seen as MS-63 on a bourse floor because of the relatively nice obverse fields and the very nice reverse.

i always give a nod to the obv. in most cases thats what we see in an album however when assessing a coin for the 5 categories, they are graded based on the same criteria. if more than 2 grades difference then I can see netting them, otherwise I go with the obv

I'd buy that one as MS-63. Nice frosty coin.
