Detail on this coin is beautiful a very strong strike for a New Orleans mint coin. I would grade the details at MS-64. I'm not 100% but I also think this coin has been lightly polished.

tumbleweedtrumpet Pillar of the Community United States 1418 Posts	Posted 07/28/2010 6:44 pm I agree that it's been polished. Report this Post to the Staff
Jaobler Pillar of the Community United States 6384 Posts	Posted 07/28/2010 11:58 pm I agree it may have a problem. I've never seen an original Morgan dollar with that chromium-plated shine evident in your first two photos. A genuine deep-mirror-prooflike (DMPL) Morgan with original surfaces has a very different appearance. I'm 90% sure this coin would get an "altered surface" comment if it were sent to one of the top grading services. Report this Post to the Staff
