If you don't mind, could you explain why you feel there is such a large variance in the three TPG's? From what I've seen, ANACS is fairly accurate on Morgans, along with PCGS and NGC.

Ms-63. The chatter and marks on the face makes this coin grade ms-63 in my eyes...I think ANACS is often more strict with their grading...but I would say the major TPGS would be within 1 point of eachother, not sure what he is getting at...

In my experience,ANACS is much more tough on Morgans but I would give this baby a 64.

That coin looks super sweet to me. I'm going to start making a fool of myself and actually try to get involved in the grading guesses. Read rank amateur.
MS 63 Higher if not for the discoloring on the cheek,neck,and breast of the eagle.
Nice strong strike.

Sweet frostiness! Excellent eagle breast feathers. I give it an easy MS-64.

I'd go with an easy MS-64 ... and I agree, the frostiness of the coin looks great ... and little to no marks ... it's a beauty.

I'm going to go with MS 65, the photo's a bit one the3 blurry side, and I think the cheek marks may not be as bad as we are guesssing they are....I like to gamble here
