I would agree with you, MS-63 to MS-64

Would it be possible to see the whole coin? While the area pictures you have posted are very important,other factors come into play on the grade.Such as luster,bag marks,rim damage.So a whole coin pic would be appreciated.

pateio, Thanks for the added pictures. Many of the 1881-S Morgans were struck with Prooflike dies and yours seems to be one of them.I believe you also have a S/S VAM there.Doubled mint mark. As far as grading,I would say a strong MS63 and probably a MS64,depending how the hit on the cheek looks like with coin in hand. Also,welcome to the CC forums.

I think 64 would properly describe that coin. The hits on the cheek probably keep it from 65, considering how tight grading is these days. I like it.

I'd have to say MS63 because I think I see luster breaks but I cant be certain.

Nice coin hard to grade relly by that photo but I would say MS-63. also a little thought try to use a grey background or black or even white th green seems to distract from the coin in the photo , that is just my opinion . By the way welcome to the forum

Yeah, I'll go along with MS-63.  It might even go -64 based on the images although there's a couple marks on Liberty's face which might keep it down and an itty-bitty rim ding at 1 o'clock, depending on the influence of the camera. Otherwise, a generally clean Morgan with Good eye, patelo! Fred
