Hello all,
I have some Morgans that I think are 64's minimum.
I would like to send them to one of the forum members that are big into Morgans to see what they say about the coin in hand. I only want to slab them if 65+.
If anyone is interested, please let me know. I will pay for all shipping fees, as well as including an added bonus.
Thanks!
Jordan

As much as I would like to help, my grading skills aren't developed well so maybe SuperDave or MorganFred or even Susan would be the best ones for you to send them to for a closer to accurate grade

Anything you get from a member here would be just an opinion - and wouldn't necessarily reflect what PCGS/NGC would think of the coin. Having said that, I'd nominate MorganFred or Becky as the most likely candidates to grade any given Morgan.

Last month you posted pics of an 1878-P 7TF Morgan that were of sufficient quality to pretty much grade from the pic, notwithstanding luster. Did you take them yourself?

SuperDave, why do you have a 1878 Morgan for a icon instead of a 1921? Always wondered that and figured now was as good of a time to ask as any. And about Becky, I have never even seen them try to grade a morgan so I guess thats why I didn't mention them as one of the candidates

My icon was a coin I owned - it was a really pretty coin, and I liked the character of the pic I took, so that was it. Until I find a VAM-1X, I won't have a striking enough 1921 to use as a full-shot avatar.

It is time to chage, though, as I Ebayed my avatar coin a while back.
Rest in Peace

Jordan, I'd love to take a look at them, but wouldn't be able to do it until this fall (early October) when I return home. I'm in the northern Arizona mountains for the summer, get all my mail via General Delivery in Flagstaff, forwarded from my home Post Office in southern AZ... and the service is flaky, to say the least (takes two to three weeks to forward about 200 miles; they had me resubmit my forwarding request for no known reason, then confused my home address with my forwarding address and started forwarding my forwarded mail back to home).

If you want to wait that long, we can discuss it off-forum. I do not charge for appraisal services, do it as a favor for friends and Morganphiles (same thing). I've got a pretty good PCGS Morgan reference collection (G-06 to MS-66), but an estimate would not necessarily hold true if you wanted to have it graded by NGC or ANACS.
