obviously well circulated, but some pretty fine detail, especially on front... any guess on grading? maybe 20-30?

I'm at VG-10, if it were mine, I'd just leave it in a flip.

Leave it as is. Not worth slabbing. Still a nice circulated Morgan.

Fairly attractive CC Morgan, but not much upside to grading it.

Not really any reason to slab it - it will make a great album coin though!

I see a fantastic circulated cameo coin. I would truly enjoy having that in my collection, so well found.

Not worth TPG grading but a lovely and historic coin indeed.

No need to grade it.

VG10 sounds right

since you are fairly new here, here is something to add to your knowledge base regarding sending a coin to grade. this could save you quite a but of $$ in the future. based on this grade your coin has a retail value of about $170. you would chew up most of the value of the coin sending this one in

there are two reasons to slab.

1. its a rare coin that needs authenticated and preserved
2. you are planning on selling the coin and the cost of acquisition plus the grading fee's would warrant it without chewing up all your profit

if you are not familiar with grading here are the costs:

PCGS charges a minimum of $69 for a subscription other subscription levels include grading vouchers though so you could reduce these costs. add to the subscription cost, per coin grading cost which is a minimum of $23, shipping & ins both ways (1-4 coins is $27 if the total value is under $1000)

NGC - economy grading tier is $22, plus $10 handling fee, plus $28 for shipping (1-5 coins) and insurance both ways.

ANACS - Economy - No Gold: $18 per item for items valued up to $500. plus $29 for shipping (1-4 coins) and insurance both ways.

CAC - $99 subscription ($50 grading credit), economy grading $15, gold $28, $40 shipping/handling/ins

i don't slab coins for these reasons especially the cost involved. I don't know why this is so popular today. just making the grading companies wealthy. put it in an airtite holder
